Unit Spelling Rules
Double S, F, L, or Z at the End of Words: At the end of one syllable words, usually double the letters S, F, L, or Z right after a short vowel.
Caboose E: A Silent E is added to words to prevent them from ending in V or U because most English words do not end with the letters V or U
