Spelling in KS1
Spelling in KS2
The majority of children in KS2 learn spellings by working through the National Curriculum Appendix 1, which organises learning objectives and spelling patterns into age related expectations. Each week, a particular spelling pattern (e.g. words ending in –tion or words containing ‘ough’) will be taught to children in class and the children will be given a list of words including this pattern to learn. Children will practise these spellings in school but are also expected to practise reading and spelling the words at home, in preparation for a spelling test on Fridays. This helps children to gain a greater understanding of the words so they can spell them correctly in their writing.
