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.
