Spelling fun in 6R!
Today, 6R decided to practise their spelling rules for the week (prefixes and suffixes) in a slightly different context, by taking them out on the playground! Having been divided into teams, the children had to write - on the ground, in chalk - the word read out to them, as quickly as possible. The team to write the word correctly first scored a point.
We really struggled to spell one of the words, so decided to practise it by chanting and clapping the letters, and also by spelling it out with our bodies! We won't forget that word again! Can you work out what it was?
What are your top spelling tips?
6R, I am really impressed that you have been learning spelling rules in such a fun and interesting way. Is unnecessary the word you struggled with?
ReplyDeleteIt was, indeed! Well done for working it out!
ReplyDelete5G really liked this idea and we are going to try it out ourselves! We thought the use of the outside space was very inventive and using your bodies is a great way to ensure the spelling of the word sticks!
