Missing Letters

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a fill-in-the-blank activity designed to improve spelling skills for middle school students. Each numbered line presents a partially spelled word with blanks where certain letters should be. The students’ task is to deduce the correct letters to complete each word and write the full word on the corresponding line. At the bottom of the page, there’s an additional instruction for students to choose the word they struggled with the most and write it again, which reinforces their understanding and memory of that word.

The worksheet is structured to teach students about word patterns and to encourage critical thinking as they deduce the missing letters. It helps to broaden their vocabulary by introducing them to words that may be less familiar. This exercise also promotes attention to spelling details and the application of phonetic rules. By rewriting the word they found most challenging, students engage in targeted practice, which can improve retention and understanding of difficult spelling concepts.
