Year 2 Spelling

Spellings 09.06.23

Posted on Friday 09 June 2023 by Miss Kay

This week, our spellings words are past tense verbs (a doing or a being word) that follow our -ed suffix. This is the ending of a word.

jumped, hopped, skipped, looked, picked, closed, liked, loved

Due to Year 2 having Forest Schools on a Friday, we will be doing our spellings check on Thursdays for this half term. We will have 8 spellings each week to focus on.

It’s our last week of spellings for this half term! This week, they all include our prefix learning of ‘un’. A prefix is added to the beginning of a word to change the meaning.

Our spellings are: unkind, unhappy, unfair, untie, unable, unused, uncover, unlucky, unsafe, and unhealthy.

Help at home by talking about the meaning of these words and how that changes if we remove the prefix ‘un’.

This week, our spelling words will be compound words. Compound words are individual words that are made up of two other words combined. For example, hand and bag = handbag.

footprint, butterfly, classroom, lipstick, snowball, notebook, popcorn, toothbrush, rainbow, blackberry

 

Why not learn your spelling words by putting them in silly sentences to make a story? Underline the spelling words to help you remember them.

This week, we’ve been learning about contractions!

Contractions include an apostrophe to show the omission of letters. For example, I am is contracted to I’m and could not is contracted to couldn’t.

Our spellings for the next week will be contractions, to help us remember how to use apostrophes and apply this to our writing.

  • wouldn’t
  • couldn’t
  • shouldn’t
  • I’m
  • I’ve
  • don’t
  • won’t
  • didn’t
  • can’t
  • they’re
