Teachers’ Notes SPELL IT RIGHT! 2 is a bright, simple set of activities based on the idea that words cluster together around meaning groups or themes. When we talk about a subject, for example weather, it is likely that we will use words that are related to the weather theme.

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Teac he r

SPELL IT RIGHT! 2 uses simple lists of ten words on 40 varied themes. These words were selected with the help of children of the ages that the books are aimed at.

ew i ev Pr

The activities are fun, but have an underlying language core. They are seen as being ideal for both class use or as assigned homework exercises.

The SPELL IT RIGHT! series is not presented as a complete spelling system, but rather a purposeful extra ... an extra children will love to use.

m . u

w ww

Three consistent parts which arise in the worksheets are those under the heading, Question 1: ''Put each word into a sentence''; “Build more words from each word in the list” and “Rewrite the spelling list in alphabetical order.”

. tin this section should be done in work pads o The activities e or c chea template, that canr exercise books. However, be. photocopied e o for children, is onto the back of worksheets to guidelines t r s s uprovide per provided on the last page of this book. Alternatively, Question 1 can be done orally, depending on your requirements.
