Dear Parents/Carers,
The children’s spellings this week are linked to some work we have been doing in maths on matching numerals to written words. Therefore, the children’s spellings this week are all numbers.
Some assessments are currently being carried out, so please bear in mind that it is not unusual for your child to change spelling group over the course of the next few weeks as we assess their spelling needs.
We always emphasise to the children that spelling tests are just a part of their learning and that the most important thing is that they learn the meaning of words and are able to use and spell them correctly within their independent writing. With this in mind, when practising at home with your child it is helpful to ask them to write their spellings in sentences. I have sent home a practise sheet for each group so please feel free to use the back of this to do so.
Many Thanks,
Miss Barratt
