Spelling

After achieving the expected Phonic standard, children in Year 2 to 6 learn spellings through regular weekly sessions where they either focus on key words or spelling rules. Our weekly spelling sessions include the 4 elements: revisit, teach, practice and apply.

At Turnditch we follow the Spelling Shed Scheme which makes the acquisition of spelling and word knowledge fun and engaging for our children. Our chosen scheme aligns with the English National Curriculum.
