Year 1 - The End Sound ll

The End Sound ll is a quiz that informs KS1 children of the rules and spellings of words that end in ‘ll’. The words are taken from and added to those stated in the National Curriculum.

If a word ends in a ‘l’ sound, it is most likely going to be written like this: ‘ll’. If the vowel sound in the word is what we call a short sound, then the next letters will be doubled. Test your knowledge on these spellings.

The 'e' makes a short sound compared to the word 'wheel' where the 'ee' makes a long vowel sound. That is why the word wheel only has one 'l' at the end of the word.
