Spelling Tasks

In my opinion SPELLING TESTS are NOT an accurate measurement tool of every child’s progress. Although most schools have them as a policy I think it’s important to try and teach children that struggle with spellings (especially children with specific learning difficulties) that 10/10 in a spelling test does not make a student more worthy. • Often the traditional way of making children- rewrite spellings they got wrong underneath the test 5 times, is thought to be the correct way to ensure a child learns those spelling and although this might be true for some children, it is not helpful for children who present dyslexic traits. For these children, visual tasks and creativity work much better to highlight spelling patterns. • With these children in mind I created a “super spelling task resource” it has 12 unique ways to encourage children to pick one spelling they got wrong and do a very short task on it to allow them to master one of their words, instead of rewriting 5 words and not really learning any of them. Majority of the tasks I have made up myself but I found some online too!!

I found wee tasks like these handy during placement as extensions when I was working with a target focus group. They also revealed a child’s understanding of the content of the book further. I thought by having a pack ready to go it would help me during my NQT year with timing and organisation. • I made this 4 category reading bundle pack for library book and guided reading tasks. I split the pack into 4 category’s which are: Charter work Setting work Word work Author work
