Year 1 - The End Sound ff

The End Sound ff helps KS1 children learn spellings that end in ‘ff’. The spelling rule is outlined in the National Curriculum and states that Year 1 children should know when to use this sound.

If a word ends in a ‘f’ sound, it is most likely going to end with two of that letter: ‘ff’. Normally if the vowel sound before it is short, like an ‘uh’ sound, the next letters will be ‘ff’.

Why does the word 'puff' end with 'ff'?
Because the word begins with a 'p'.
Because the 'u' sound is a short vowel sound.
Because the 'u' sound is a long vowel sound.
Because every word has two f's in them.
