This week’s spelling work is a spelling task and is due on Thursday 14 November.
Year 1 have a spelling puzzle to complete – practising sounding out words using their phonics knowledge.
Year 2 are practising their homophones – words that sound the same but have different meanings and are spelt differently.
01 December 2017
For all children in Year 1, this week’s spelling is to learn how to spell the days of the week. Because these are proper nouns, they must have a capital letter to be correct.
For all children in Year 2, this week’s spelling is to learn how to spell the days of the week and the months of the year. They must have a capital letter to be correct.
Friday 17 November
This week, our spellings homework is a list of words to learn for a test based on our phonics learning. Have a look in your child’s book or ask me at the gate if you are unsure of which group they are in.

This week’s spelling homework is a spelling task.
Year 1 have a phonics based spelling task. The children need to use their growing phonics knowledge to recognise the sounds in the words. Using the key at the top, colour the box the correct colour. What picture will it reveal? Have a look in the homework books to see which picture your child has.
Year 2 have a homophones task to complete. Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelt differently. This week we are focusing on to, too and two:
- I went to the park.
- I would like to come too.
- I had two bananas.
