KS2 spelling worksheet that helps Year 3 and Year 4 children spot common words that contain a silent b.

A short rule explains what a silent letter is: a letter that is written but not heard when the word is spoken, so lamb is written with a b but pronounced lam. Children then read eight clues and write the silent b word that fits each one. Words include comb, thumb, bomb, lamb, climb, crumbs, limbs and doubt. To finish, they find all eight silent b words hidden in a printed wordsearch.
