Spellings
Spelling lists are given out each term and cover the national curriculum spelling objectives and will incorporate the Year 5/6 spelling list from the national curriculum.
It is vital that the children learn their spellings each week. In addition to learning the words, the children should learn any applicable rules or tricky parts in the words.
The children are assessed in their spellings the first week of the autumn term using the single word spelling test. This test will give each child a spelling age and will help me to put the children into spelling groups or identify those who may need some support. Once this has been completed, the spelling lists will be sent home. The single word spelling test is repeated again in the middle andat the end of the year to show and measure the progression the children have made.
Some children will complete the SNIP program which is a spelling intervention program instead. Their list of words will also be sent home each week for extra practise. Children will also access to IDL which is an inline program. This means they are also able to access this at home.
If you lose your sheet, you will find sheets on here and attached to the notice board in the classroom.
