Y6 Spelling SATs Booklet Rules Revision KS2 Daily Practise

(0)
Year 6 Spelling booklet containing all key spelling rules covered in the SATs. Pupil recording booklet to revise and practise spellings containing common rules. 49 pages in total. In the SATs, children will be tested on spelling rules for Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6. In 2016, only 2/20 of the words used in the SATs spelling test were on the English appendix. As a Year 6 teacher for over 15 years, this lead me to make my own recording booklet for pupils to revise in class and at home. It is important to remember that the format of the spelling test means children must write these words correctly into a sentence. They do not normally fall at the start of the sentence so they do not need a capital letter.
