Spellings 3.2

This half term, we are continuing to practise the 40 spellings from half term 3.1. There were a few tricky words in the list that the class will benefit from some extra practise with.

Instead of learning eight different words each week, we’d like your child to learn these 40 words over the whole half-term. Lots of research suggests that learning more spellings over a longer time leads to better remembering how to spell them in the long term.

Any questions please ask!
