Can you spell all the words correctly? ff words (copy). Try this test!
Does your word end in an f sound? Does your word contain a short vowel sound? If you answered yes to both questions, its likely that the f sound at the end of your word is spelt with the letters ff.
For example:
The word staff contains a short /a/ sound and ends with an f sound. This means the f needs to be doubled.
The word cliff contains a short /i/ sound and ends with an f sound. Once again, the f needs to be doubled.
The word cuff contains a short /u/ sound and ends with an f sound. As before, the f needs to be doubled.
This rule also applies to words that end with s and l after a short vowel sound.
"Spellzone fits in beautifully with our Scope and Sequence of Phonological Awareness and Spelling. It also aligns perfectly with the four areas of spelling knowledge and uses the Brain, Ears, Eyes approach to learning spelling."
