Y2 - Half Term Spellings - 26th October 2016

Sorry for the late posting of the half term spellings!  Your child should have brought home a sheet that contains common exception words for year 1 and year 2.  Initially the challenge for the children is to read these words.  When your child can read all of these tricky words they then need to see if they can spell them.  Maybe take a couple of the words a week, as we will in class, pop them on the fridge and each time you come across them ask your child to spell them, find fun ways of remembering them, make them with magnetic letters, put them into a sentence, etc.  On Friday 4th November we will be checking how far the children have got with the reading and spelling of some of these words, we will then check near the end of term to see how much progress we have made.  Hope you are all enjoying the holidays - and don't forget the royal visit tomorrow!
