Primary 2 Spelling Week

This week in Primary 2 we will be focusing on our spelling words.

Our words this week are:

  • much
  • of
  • or
  • old
  • do
  • going

The children have created their own flash cards of the spelling words which they can use to practice at home if they wish.

I have included some activities that you can try at home if you wish.

Activities

Rainbow writing- The children write out their words using a different colour for each letter.

Backwards writing- The children write out their words forwards and then backwards.

Capital writing- The children write out their words in capital letters.

Primary 1 Spelling w/k 4th October

In P1 this week we are learning the spelling words

  • is
  • it
  • an
  • in

Thus far, P1 have learned the sounds

  • a
  • s
  • t
  • n
  • r
  • i
  • m
  • p

If you would like, at home children could practise reading their spelling words,  practice reading their sounds and practice their letter formation.

Some activities could be,

  • writing in rice
  • looking for words in newspapers on the tv
  • Rainbow writing, children write their words using a different colour for each letter.

Some fun videos to remind the children of each sound, found on Youtube are

Good morning everyone

I hope you are all doing well today. Our classroom is very quiet today. I am already missing seeing you all today. I will be posting activities on here for you to complete at home for the next few days.

On a Monday morning we begin by changing the jobs in the classroom. Perhaps at home you would like to take responsibility for something in your home this week.

This morning we would usually be completing spelling. At the moment we have two spelling groups.

If you were learning ‘ee’ and ‘ch’ then your new phoneme is ‘oo’ and your tricky words are    by          only.

Below is a list of your phoneme words to try this week.

zoo

mood

fool

spoon

look

stool

cook

If you were  learning ‘ay’ and ‘ea’ previously then your new phoneme is ‘ow’ as in snow. This weeks tricky words are       out       now          new

low

grow

throw

follow

shallow

show

Remember to draw around your tricky words to see the shapes they make. We have been spending a lot of time on our handwriting. Remember to take your time.

You could complete your words on the computer, with bubble writing, play-dough or anything else you may have at home.
