Letterland Spelling Unit 10: ff, ll, and ss is a Grade 1 English worksheet that helps students spell words containing the double consonants ff, ll, and ss. It includes 10 questions in two formats: five fill-in-the-blank items, such as completing p_ff and dol_, and five multiple-choice items that ask students to identify correctly spelled words such as huff, bell, miss, and hiss. This free printable worksheet gives beginning spellers practice applying double-consonant patterns within complete words rather than memorizing the letter combinations in isolation. The fill-in-the-blank section focuses on supplying the missing letter, while the multiple-choice section builds careful visual comparison of similar spellings, including distractors such as hof, sell, and his. It is suitable for Grade 1 phonics or spelling instruction, independent practice, review, or a quick formative check, and it includes a complete answer key for efficient feedback.

This Grade 1 worksheet covers spelling words with the double consonants ff, ll, and ss through five fill-in-the-blank items and five multiple-choice spelling questions. Students complete patterns such as p_ff, dol_, and p_ss, then distinguish correct spellings such as huff, bell, miss, and hiss from plausible distractors.
Introduce the worksheet by modeling how a missing letter completes words such as puff, off, doll, pass, and will, then have students explain which consonant is doubled. Use the multiple-choice items afterward to compare correct spellings with distractors such as hof, sell, and his, asking students to point to the letter pattern that makes each answer correct.
Watch for students writing or selecting a single f, l, or s when the word requires ff, ll, or ss, as in off, doll, pass, or will. In the multiple-choice section, students may choose a distractor that resembles the target word, so have them check each consonant carefully rather than relying only on how the word sounds.
