Spellings
We would like you to get back in to the habit of practising your spellings each week and maybe taking a test if someone in your family is able to test you.
Look at the attached spelling lists for Year 1. Lots of these spelling sets will look familiar as you have already been tested on them. See if you can find the last set of spellings that you were learning before we left school. For example, your last test may have been set 18 on List B.
- Look back over the spelling sets that you have already been tested on. Can you remember how to spell them all? Revise any of the words that you find tricky.
- Look at the next set of new words. Practise writing them out by copying them first, then cover them up and try and spell them from memory.
- Ask someone in your family to test you at the end of the week. Can you spell all 10 words correctly? Look at the next new set each week and complete another test.

In your garden or out when you are next walking, I would like you to lift a rock, dig in the soil or lift a fallen branch.

Happy Hunting!
