Teaching spelling so it ‘sticks’ – explore best practice in teaching spelling to pupils in KS2.
With reference to research and new and updated SLN resources, the course will help you understand what a good spelling programme from Year 2 into KS2 looks like and how a successful series of lessons could be structured.
There will be opportunities to share good practice and attendees will be encouraged to develop a whole KS2 approach to teaching spelling so it ‘sticks’.
Course contents will cover:
- Research on how children learn to spell and evaluate what approaches are most effective when teaching spelling
- Exploring a complete spelling curriculum from SLN with editable PowerPoints to support the teaching of spelling
- Exploring practical ways to include the statutory word lists within a spelling programme
- Suggestions on how to include meaningful assessment
- Time to develop an action plan for your own practice or Key Stage
- Opportunities to share good practice and network with members
This training is delivered via Zoom and the materials referenced will be available digitally.
