About this test list: Longer words with ll

This word list highlights the use of double l in longer words. The essential rule here is to double the l when it comes after a short vowel sound.

Examples worth noting:

cellar: In this word, the double l follows the short vowel e.

ballot: The double l follows the short /a/ sound.

bollard:This time, a short /o/ is followed by the letters ll

As you explore these words, consider incorporating them into your own sentences. This practice will not only reinforce the spelling rule but also enhance your vocabulary and overall writing skills.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
