Year 1 spellings

This week’s spelling homework is a spelling task with a test on Friday 14 September.

As the children enter year 1, it is expected that when they write their names they will write their first name and their surname. Therefore, this week’s spelling homework is to practise spelling their surnames. We’ll also be practising this in our writing area this week, too.

Year 2 spellings 

This week’s homework is a spelling list to be tested on Friday 14 September.
As the children become more independent in year 2, they are expected to spell the days of the week correctly. Therefore, this week’s spelling words are the seven days of the week. To be marked as correct, they must have a capital letter!
