Wow! Look at this – an Egyptian jellyfish. Our spelling words are in hieroglyphics on the the tentacles of the jellyfish. I love the idea of using a shower cap to make the jellyfish!

Creative Spelling
Here is the latest example of our creative spelling homework from this arty Superstar.
This week we were learning “ou” words, and one of this group’s words was “house.”
So here is a beautiful bird’s house …
.. and the lid lifts off and there are some eggs inside!!
We all agreed it was amazing.
Topic Spelling
We have had lot of Ancient Egyptian themed spelling as part of our creative challenge this month. The Superstars have been working really hard.
Spelling words around a mummy and words turned into hieroglyphics.
Tasty Spelling
Here is a great spelling idea. As part of our spelling homework, this Superstar put all of her words onto cakes. Primary 2S know that cake is Mrs Stewart’s very favourite thing to eat, so she loved this idea!
We all got a piece of the cakes at snack time. They were delicious.
Superstar Spelling
Here is another fantastic example of creative spelling from one of our Superstars.
Last week we were studying long “a” sounds – ay, ai and a_e.
Here is an amazing train cake.
Even spelling can be yummy!!
Here is another great idea. This Superstar made a game to learn her spelling words. In the lovely pink container there are all her spelling words and some flowers. To play the game you have to pick out a word. If you can read it, you can keep it. If you pick a flower, you miss a turn. The winner is the one with the most words at the end of the game!
Here is a fairytale troll with the spelling words on him.
Superstar Spelling
The Superstars have been producing some fantastic work as part of their creative spelling challenge. Here is some of their recent work completed at home.
Sight Words
Sight words make up half of our weekly spelling list They are the words we use most often in our reading and writing. They are quite often tricky to learn. We are taking lots of opportunities to use and practise them in class.
One of our weekly activities is to make a weekly sight word pattern book. This week we were concentrating on the words “the” and “is.”
We have mixed up sentences to cut them apart and re-arrange so that they make sense. We have to look for clues such as the capital letter and full stop to find the beginning and end of the sentence.
