Worksheet Overview

Can you read these words?

red tick

tick

dog licking its lips

lick

They both end in the letters ick.

Now how about these words?

tickle

flicker

Can you see that they also have the letters ick in them, but in the middle rather than at the end?

If you can recognise parts of words it can help you with your reading and spelling.

In this activity, we will practise looking for words that have the same letter patterns in them.
