Run plus ing, stop plus ed, rob plus ed: the doubling final consonant worksheet makes the rule click through eight word-building equations before moving into sentence work.
Three numbered sections build on each other across this page. Section one gives students eight addition-style equations where they write the correctly spelled result. Section two pairs misspelled and correct versions in real sentences so students circle the right one. Section three supplies a word box of five target words and asks students to slot each into a sentence context.
The doubling final consonant worksheet covers a tidy set of high-frequency examples: running, stopped, planned, bigger, hugging, and skipping. The rule explanation at the top walks through short vowel plus consonant plus vowel suffix with three worked examples before any student writing begins. The layout is open and uncluttered, so a single session moves quickly from guided rule review to independent practice.


Highlighters are useful here before a pencil ever touches the fill-in lines. Students can swipe the doubled consonant in each answer to reinforce what they are practicing visually. Fine liners work well for the circling task in section two, giving a clean loop around the correct spelling. Keep markers away from the word box in section three since bleed-through can obscure the answer lines below.

Standard 20 lb copy paper handles this worksheet fine. Scale to 100 percent and keep orientation portrait so the two-column layout in sections one and two stays aligned without crowding the answer blanks.
