23 pages of fun Christmas activities, including mazes, colouring, spot the difference, code breakers, crosswords, word searches and other word puzzles!
Perfect for ages 5-9
I developed these spelling journals years ago after a course gave me the inspiration and I have used them with my pupils ever since. The idea is that they put in words the teacher has highlighted in their work as misspelled in with their writing tasks but they can also be used for class spelling lists as well. The children take ownership by practicing the 5 or ten words through the week, either at home or during school time. The teacher just checks them at the end of the week/when they know all the words and either puts a smiley face in the end column or an arrow. The arrow means that that word gets transferred to the next page to be practiced another week.
I have re jazzed these to share.
A FREE fun and challenging picture pointer puzzle to help teach the alternative spellings for the long vowel sound /oa/ taught in Phase 5 of the Letters and Sounds programme. Children use the pictures as clues to fill in the numbered grid. The different graphemes are provided at the top.
