Good afternoon Elm!

This week, there will be no spellings set on Spelling Shed as we break up for the Summer Holidays on Wednesday 21st July 2021.

Instead, I would like you to practise being able to read and spell the Year 1 Common Exception Words – these are words that you should be able to spell by the end of Year 1.

• T-L-5155-Year-1-Common-Exception-Words_ver_4

I would also like to you to have a look at the Year 2 Common Exception Words (words that you should be able to spell by the end of Year 2) in preparation for next school year.

• T-L-5157-Year-2-Common-Exception-Words_ver_1

If you would like any of the sheets printed, please send me an email and I can pop this into your child’s bag.

If you have any issues, please do not hesitate to contact me via email – caroline.bagshaw@taw.org.uk
