ck vs. k vs. c in Spelling!

      Last week, we talked about how the /k/ sound can be made by c, k, or ck.  We had learned previously that ck happens at the end of words or syllables.

• We learned that ck is only used at the end after a short vowel (like in duck, back, sick).  
• We learned that k is not used after a short vowel.
• We learned that c does not usually end words.
