Silent final e changes the vowel sound in many one-syllable words even though the e itself is not spoken. First graders may read cake correctly and still write cak, or add an e to a short-vowel word that does not need one. On this grade 1 worksheet each line gives a clue and a row of empty letter boxes, one for every letter of the word, and your child writes the whole word in the boxes.
Counting the boxes tells how long the word is, and the clue says what it means. Support sheets use four-letter words such as cake and kite; challenge sheets add words such as snake and smile. Check the last box: does the word need the silent e?
Common Core standard: RF.1.3.C
