The 3 Sounds of 'ed'!

This week in Spelling we are practicing adding endings to small words we know. Today we focused on the three sounds of 'ed':

'ED' like waited
'D' like played
'T' like missed

As readers, we automatically make the correct sound at the end of 'ed' words because it SOUNDS right. Now we are practicing SPELLING 'ed' words correctly. For example, even though we hear a T sound at the end of 'skipped,' we know there is an 'ed,' NOT a T!
