Spelling for Year 2 and Above (Day 4 of 4)
Focus: Curriculum
For: English leaders, teachers
Description:
Getting it right when we write! A spelling project focused on learning, remembering and applying.
This multi-session project will include the exploration of creative, memorable approaches for teaching spelling, as well as strategies for supporting those pupils who find difficulty in learning, retaining and applying spelling knowledge. Between meetings, there will be interim work that teachers may complete to explore the information and ideas further, which can be shared in the following sessions.
The fourth of four sessions across the year so that there is time to disseminate it down to school.
Multiple Sessions:
This is a four session programme. All four sessions must be attended.
- [1] Wed 25 September 2024
- [2] Thu 14 November 2024
- [3] Tue 14 January 2025
- [4] Tue 4 March 2025
Please note: If you book one of these sessions, then we will automatically book you on the others. So you only need to submit one booking.
Director’s Note:
We have had so many requests for help with spelling. Get it properly addressed once and for all. Implement a whole school approach by sending your English leader and another teacher to support them in implementation.
