Test your spelling: Doubling consonants or not!

If the last syllable of a word is stressed and ends with one consonant letter which has just one vowel letter before it, the final consonant letter is doubled before any ending with a vowel letter is added. The consonant letter is not doubled if the syllable is unstressed.

Test yourself using the Listen and Spell test.

"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."
