Our spelling rule for the week: adding the suffix -ed to one syllable words.  The children will use the rule double the last letter then add -ed to words with a short vowel sound and one consonant (pat - patted,  shop - shopped) or just add -ing to words with a long voewl sound or a short vowel followed by 2 consonants (play - played, flock - flocked).  See the spelling shed tab for a parent's guide and link to the spellng shed website.
