Double up for a short vowel sound
This week, we have focussed on a spelling rule that we have previously learned but still make mistakes with.
The ‘double up for a short vowel’ sound is very common in the English language although, as we have found, there are exceptions to the rule.
Here are a list of words that double up for a short vowel sound. You should familiarise yourself with the rule and learn how to spell these words. You will be tested on ten of these words on Friday 03 March.
