3 four in-a-row games and 3 puzzles worksheets for fun revision of the KS2 Y5 / Y6 statutory word list of 100 words. They work well for Year 6 SATs tests preparation, or use as starter tasks, early finisher activities or as stations in spelling / SPaG lessons. Ideal as fun, meaningful fillers activities too. These use UK spelling, punctuation and grammar rules.
SAVE as part of a SPaG Revision Activities BUNDLE, which also contains SPaG Editing / Proofreading Puzzles.
3 HIDDEN WORD / SPOT THE MISTAKES PUZZLES:
- Puzzles feature sentences containing multiple words from the Year 5 and Year 6 spelling list, most spelled correctly
- Students check carefully to spot errors and highlight corresponding letters in the grid at the bottom
- Rearrange highlighted letters to form another word from the spelling list
- To save printing, print puzzles on card and laminate. Students use whiteboard pens, allowing repeated use
- Puzzles are included with a pastel background, to reduce glare for dyslexic learners and others for whom this is helpful. If not colour printing, it becomes a greyscale background, which you might like, though there are also versions without a background
- Spotting errors may help students remember to check their own work and help them avoid errors themselves
- Individual, pairs or small group use
- For differentiation put lower ability children into pairs, perhaps with a higher ability student. You could allow a word list or dictionary for support
3 FOUR IN A ROW GAMES:
- Each board contains 36 sentences featuring a misspelled word from the Year 5 and Year 6 word list
- These words are printed in bold and underlined
- Pairs or individuals can play against each other, aiming to correct 4 adjacent spellings in a line - horizontally, vertically or diagonally
- Students roll dice to determine from which column they must pick a sentence
- Print and laminate for regular use
- Originally designed for A3 printing, and I recommend this, with students writing directly on the board with a thin whiteboard pen. However, it works fine in A4 (you may need to adjust printer settings). If A4, students could write their spelling on a mini whiteboard or paper and put their initials in the space if correct
