🎯 Objective
Generalize learned spelling patterns (silent-e, consonant doubling) Students practice through a printed warm-up, then reinforce with an interactive game at their own pace.
📄 Warm-up (5–10 min): printable worksheet

- Spelling Patterns: Short & Long Vowels — CVC short-vowel words vs. CVCe long-vowel words (silent e)
- Word Families — Rhyming word families: -ight, -ame, -ake, -ore
- Silent E & Doubling — When to drop e, double a letter, or change y to i
🎮 Practice (10 min): online game
Same skill, game form — students who finish the worksheet early start here. Progress saves locally; classrooms with class codes sync to the teacher dashboard.
✅ Wrap-up (5 min): quick check
