Spellings will be tested every Autumn, Spring and Summer Term.
The children will be assessed at the beginning of each term on the Year 1/2 or Year 3/4 (which ever year group is appropriate) on the statutory spelling words list and words that each individual child needs to learn will be sent home for you to work on together.
As all children will be having daily Read, Write Inc. phonics, they will be working on spellings each and every day in school. These will be the key graphemes and phonemes they need to learn.
We feel as a school this is the best approach to help and support each child in their learning journey.
