This is the second week of investigating the effect of adding ‘ing’ to words.
This week’s spellings are all words which have a short vowel sound before the final letter (think of the difference between the ‘o’ in hop – a short ‘o’ sound) compared to ‘hope’ (a longer sound, like ‘oh’).
When there’s a short vowel sound, you need to double up the final letter when adding ‘ing’.
Your child will be tested on eight out of the ten words on Friday 07 October.
