The children have all now been given their login details for Spelling Shed, this is a great online resource for practising spellings which can be found here: Spelling Shed.
If you have any issues logging on then please let us know.
We have also looked at lots of different ways to practise spellings in school, below are just a few ideas:
- Write each word out three times (you could use different colours)
- Cut out letters from newspapers or magazines and use them to make your spelling words.
- Make a pyramid using the letters in your words eg. w
. w o
. w o r
. w o r d
- Write your spellings in alphabetical order, you could then write them in order using the second/third letter.
- Time challenge – how many times can you write your spellings in a given time? You can try and beat your score throughout the week.
- Put your spellings into sentences, see if your can make a story with them.
- You can write each letter of your spellings using a different colour or even use bubble writing.
- Include each spelling in a picture that makes you think of the word.
