Spelling

Term 1
For the start of the year most children will be focussing on the Essential Lists. These words make up the majority of our everday writing.  Being able to recall these words instantly and knowing how to write them off by heart will greatly assist your child in their literacy.

Your child will be given 5 words to learn every week and they will be tested on Fridays to see how well they know them "off by heart".  Please support them with this using the prompts in the Spelling book.  Your child can also use the website Spelling City to play fun games on-line to help them learn these words.
