Welcome to Reading - The Magic of Doubling!

🌟 Introduction

Hello, Super Readers! Today, we are going to explore a fun and exciting part of reading called the 1-1-1 Doubling Rule! Have you ever noticed how some words change when we add letters? Well, in this lesson, we'll uncover the magic behind it!

🔍 What is the 1-1-1 Doubling Rule?

The 1-1-1 Doubling Rule helps us know when to double the last letter of a word before we add a suffix. A suffix is a little group of letters we add to the end of a word to change its meaning or form!

So, when do we double? Let’s break it down:

  1. One-syllable word: It has just one part, like "run."
  2. Ends with one vowel: It has a single vowel in the last syllable, like the "u" in "run."
  3. Followed by one consonant: The last letter is a consonant, like "n" in "run."

If all three of these things are true, we double that last consonant!

✨ Let's Play a Game!

To help us remember this rule, let's try a fun activity:

🎲 Doubling Detective

  1. Gather Around: Everyone, gather in a circle!
  2. Word Cards: I have some word cards. Each card has a different word on it.
  3. Your Mission: Pick a card and read the word aloud. If it follows the 1-1-1 Rule, shout “Double it!”
  4. Let’s Check!: We’ll check together if we need to double the last letter when we add the suffix “-ing.”
