This week’s spellings are ‘common exception’ words – words that don’t follow the usual spelling rule or pattern. We keep spellings for two weeks. On the first week, children need to read and write the word using the ‘look, say, cover, write, check’ method. On the second week, they can write them using rainbow writing. There are some more ideas here too.
