About This Spelling List: e-e words

Some words in English spell the long /e/ sound by adding the letter e to the end of the word. This creates the pattern found in words like theme, scene, and evening. The e-e combination makes the vowel sound long, similar to the ee in see.

Here are two examples:

Theme – The family went to the theme park. Scene – The picture showed a peaceful country scene.

Recognising this e-e pattern will help with spelling other words that contain this sound.

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
