Spellings
Practising spellings regularly is very important because it helps children become confident writers and readers. When children know how to spell words correctly, they can focus more on their ideas and less on thinking about how to write each word. Learning spellings also helps children recognise words when reading and improves their vocabulary. Little and often practice helps children remember spellings and develop strong literacy skills for the future.
REMEMBER - Children will be tested each 1/2 term - these results will be recorded and sent home to you.
There are lots of spelling strategies you can use to practice your spellings at home. Please complete this in your purple homework books. These include:
- Rainbow writing
- Pyramid writing
- Writing the spellings in a sentence (using Year 3 writing skills)
- practice typing them out or using the handwriting repeater app https://www.ictgames.com/mobilePage/writingRepeater/index.html
