Spelling List 2: Three Letter Blends Worksheets for 2nd Grade

What your child practices

These 6 worksheets turn the three letter blends word list into 72 questions for 2nd grade (Grade 2 in Canada). In the early grades, spelling and phonics grow together: when children can hear the sounds in a word, they can write it, and every list builds on that link. The set includes Word Practice, ABC Order, Missing Letters, Unscramble, Fill in the Sentence and Spelling Test. It is aligned to Common Core L.2.2d, which focuses on capital letters, punctuation and spelling. It also touches RF.2.3a, phonics and decoding words. In Canada it matches the BC curriculum for Grade 2. Answer keys sit on page 2 of each PDF, so checking takes seconds. Finished a sheet? The online version reads every question aloud and checks answers instantly.

Tips for parents

• Tap out the sounds in each word before spelling it. Hearing the sounds comes first.
• Ask your child to sort the words by pattern and explain the rule they notice.
• Spread the sheets across the week: one a day works better than all at once.
