Single or Double Consonant?

Test your spelling skills in this engaging worksheet! Learners will read each incomplete word and look at the associated picture clue. They will need to decide whether the word should be completed with a single consonant or double consonant, then write the letter or letters on the blank to spell the word correctly. 

This worksheet was designed with first and second graders in mind. It’s a great choice for evaluating students’ knowledge of spelling and the “Rabbit Rule,” which has students listen for long and short vowels in the initial syllable of a word to determine the correct spelling. As students internalize common spelling patterns, they can improve both their decoding and their spelling skills!
