spellings Term 1
We will be practising these spelling patterns in class each week to complement spellings
practised at home. All children need to learn the green words. Group 2 must also learn the next
set of spellings and can do the challenge (red) spellings if they choose to. If you notice your
child is able to learn the green spellings with ease then please encourage them to learn the next
set of spellings as well. Spellings are tested on a Friday.
