Spellings for Testing on Friday 16 January
Welcome to a new year!
Year 1: said, so, have, like, some
Year 2: after, again, any, bath, beautiful, because, behind, both, break, busy
Here are the spellings that KS1 classes have begun learning since Monday 05 in school. Please help your child to learn them at home and be ready for their spelling test on Friday 16 January. We put our spelling tests in the back of our writing books and enjoy looking at our progress.
Please use a method to learn that is effective with your child.
An idea might be:
Write spellings with a shape around to show where the ascenders and descenders are. This links to our handwriting focus for Year 2’s.

Spellings for testing on Friday 19 September
Welcome to KS1 spellings!
Children have a spelling test every other week on a Friday. We give them two weeks between tests as we know that learning spellings can be more difficult for some.
There will be time within school to learn them and we also ask parents/carers to support this learning at home too. The spellings will be added to the weekly homework sheet and posted online.
Here you will find the latest spellings and some ideas on how to support your child at home. Often parents/carers choose to have a spellings exercise book at home which they write the new spellings in for their child and practice daily.
The spellings are:
Year 1: are, ask, be, by, come
Year 2: are, ask, be, by, come, do, for, friend, full, go
These spellings will be tested on Friday 19 September
Why not try rainbow writing with your child. Write the spelling, then go over it again and again but with different coloured pencils, pens or crayons.
