Give your students a quick and focused way to review the E-Drop Spelling Rule with these low-prep, print-and-go exit tickets and practice sheet. This brief assessment resource is perfect for Orton-Gillingham and structured literacy classrooms that want to keep a close eye on whether students really understand when to drop or keep the E before adding a suffix.
Use the practice sheet as a warm-up before the exit tickets or as additional review afterward. Then, check for understanding daily with the numbered exit tickets for 5 days of quick assessment.
Each exit ticket invites students to analyze spelling in context:
- There are 3 tickets per page, each with different sentences.
- Students circle the sentence with the correct spelling or you can have them circle the spelling error instead.
- As time allows, ask students to explain why to drop or keep the E before adding the suffix to deepen their understanding of this important spelling rule.
The tickets are flexible and easy to use:
- Print and staple all 3 tickets together as a booklet for the week, or
- Cut them apart and hand out one exit ticket at the end of each lesson when you’re reviewing the E-drop rule.
To help you monitor growth, a progress tracking chart is included. There is space for 6 student names (perfect for small groups), and you can simply print additional copies as needed for larger groups or multiple intervention groups.
