Introduction

(5 minutes)
  • Gather the class for the start of the lesson.
  • Write the word “floss” on the board.
  • Say, “Who has ever heard of floss? Right, we use floss to clean our teeth! Floss also happens to use a pretty special spelling pattern, it is spelled with two s’s or double letters.”
  • Tell the class that today you will practice reading and spelling other words that also use double letters.
