This week’s spellings relate to the ‘j‘ sound at the end of a word. They will be tested on Friday 18 September 2020.
The j sound is spelled -dge straight after short vowel sounds (eg badge – the ‘a’ is making a short sound) and -ge (eg change – the ‘a’ is making a longer ‘ay’ sound) after all other sounds.
