Good news! Our Ask the Teacher video series is back, I’ll be answering a student question every week.

Today’s question is, “Teacher, can you explain the ‘i before e except after c’ rule?” Yes - there’s a little rhyme that we often use to remember whether to spell words with IE or EI, and it goes:

“I before E except after C, or when sounding like A as in neighbor and weigh.”
