5. Spelling: Grade 5: Word Endings ance - ence
Words with ence and ance endings can be difficult to spell because these word endings sound similar. This unit gives students a rule that governs the use of these two endings, though, of course, exceptions to this rule must be practised to be remembered. May we suggest a means? Have students trace the letters of problem words on a table or on their own knee to reinforce kinaesthetic image or muscle-memory, which hold the word more firmly than reciting spellings aloud.
