Materials, developed by EAST, can be used when there are concerns around the spelling development of a particular learner. The purpose of the grids is to inform teachers where a learner is in terms of spelling development, and to aid planning for further teaching. The EAST Glow tile contains additional resources and materials to support teaching spelling, with a particular focus on additional support needs.  This tool is complemented by other resources developed by EAST, all of which are available on glow for East Ayrshire colleagues to access
