Encourage children to see common
spelling patterns by looking at the words.
Suffix

• Find root word – singing
• ing, ed, er, est, ful, ly and y
Spelling Rules
• If root word ends in an e – drop it!
e.g. hope – hoping
• If root word ends in a y preceded by a consonant –
change it to an i!
e.g. baby – babies
• If root word ends in a single consonant preceded by a
vowel and the suffix begins with a vowel – double the
consonant!
e.g. shop + ing - shopping
Mnemonics
• These are great ways to help spellings!
• Could – O U lucky duck
• People – people eat orange peel like
elephants
• Because – big elephants can always
understand small elephants.
Even though the phonics
programme finishes in Year 2, all
these strategies are implemented
throughout the school.
