Children learn in different ways and not every strategy to learn spellings will suit all.
Please click on the image below for a variety of strategies to try when supporting the learning of spellings.
Below is a list of words that your child should be able to spell correctly from their learning in KS1, as well as the Year 3 & 4 spelling words.

Your child will have the name of their spelling group in written in their Contact Book. Your child will also write their spellings into their Contact Book on a Monday.
