Fascinating Fact:

If you are not sure if a word ends in -le, try writing it and checking if it looks right. Comparing it to a known word like “table” can help.

In KS1 English Spelling, pupils practise common word endings. The ending -le often makes a soft “l” sound at the end of a word, so it helps to spot the pattern and check it in your writing.

  • Word ending: Letters added at the end of a word that make a pattern.
  • -le: A common ending that finishes a word, like “little” or “table”.
  • Compare: To check a word by looking at a word you already know.
What does it mean when a word ends in -le?

It means the last two letters are l and e. The e is not said loudly, but it helps the word finish with a soft “l” sound, like “table” or “little”.

How can I tell if a word should end in -le?

Try writing the word and saying it slowly. If it ends with a soft “l” sound and looks right with -le, it is often the correct spelling.

How do I practise -le spellings for Year 2?

Write each -le word three times, then use it in a short sentence. After that, re-read your sentence to check the ending matches the word you meant.
