Just Add The ‘E’

Worksheet Description

The “Adding Silent ‘e’ to CVC Words” worksheet is designed to help students practice the concept of CVCe (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant-silent ‘e’) words. This worksheet is suitable for early elementary students, typically in first or second grade, who are learning about phonics and word patterns.

Adding Silent ‘e: Students are presented with a list of CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) words (e.g., “tap,” “kit”) and are instructed to add a silent ‘e’ to the end of each word to transform it into a new CVCe word (e.g., “tape,” “kite”).

This worksheet helps students understand how adding a silent ‘e’ at the end of a CVC word can change the vowel sound from short to long. It provides valuable practice in recognizing and applying this spelling pattern.
