You may have noticed that spelling homework has changed this term.
Students will now practice 16 words. A pre-test of a 'core' list will be performed on a Monday. Words that students spell incorrectly in this pre-test will be the basis of the words they must practise. In order to make up any additional words in order to practise a total of 16 words students will then pick words of their choice from the extension list. Students will then have their own personalised spelling list to practise for the week according to their needs.
Some weeks students will be given time in class to write out their new list and on other occasions this is to be done at home. The yellow booklet outlines the sound focus and correlating spelling words for each week of term 3 and can be kept at home on in your yellow folder.
Homework will still include set Mathletics tasks and home reading.
