Spelling 2 – ‹nge› Revision: Revise these spellings of the long vowel sounds (flash cards can be used for reading and sound dictation for spelling). Ask the class to suggest words for each one: /ai/ ai, ay, a_e, ei, eigh, a; /ee/ ee, ea, e_e, y, ey, ie, e; /ie/ ie, y, igh, i_e, i; /oa/ oa, ow, o_e, o; /ue/ ue, ew, u_e, u.

GH2: S8; G H3: S10; GH3: S12; G H5: S1

Main point: Revise the spellings of the /j/ sound that have been taught so far. The main ones are ‹j› and the ‘soft ‹g›’ spellings: ‹ge›, ‹gi› and ‹gy›, but there is also ‹dge›, which is usually used after a single vowel letter saying a short vowel sound, as in ‘badge’, ‘hedge’, ‘ridge’, ‘dodge’ and ‘fudge’. Point out that although the children learnt the ‹ege› and ‹age› spellings for words ending in /ij/ in the previous lesson, another common spelling pattern is ‹idge›, as in ‘bridge’, ‘porridge’ and ‘partridge’; if they are not sure which to use, the children should check the spelling in the dictionary. Now introduce the spelling pattern ‹nge›, which children sometimes spell incorrectly because they do not hear the ‹n›, as is often the case with consonant blends.

Spelling list: Read the words with the class, identify the stressed syllables, discuss the meaning of any unfamiliar words, and ask the children to find and highlight the ‹nge› saying /nj/ in each word. Discuss any other spelling features, including the schwas (‘challenge’ and ‘avenge’, for example), the ‹a› as /ai/ in ‘change’, ‘strange’, ‘exchange’, ‘arrange’ and ‘interchange’, the ‹a› in ‘orange’ and first ‹e› in ‘revenge’ saying /i/, the ‹o› as /u/ in ‘sponge’ and the ‹y› as /i/ in ‘syringe’. It is a good idea to blend and sound out the spelling words quickly every day with the class, emphasising the /n/ in ‹nge› each time.

Spelling Sheet 2a: The children copy out the syllables of each spelling word to help them remember the spelling. They then write a sentence for each of the first twelve spelling words. Encourage the children to use a dictionary if they are unsure of any words.

Spelling Sheet 2b: The children choose a prefix from one of the fish to complete each word [prehistoric, transport/teleport, subway, prepare, interactive, transfer/prefer, telephone, submarine, antibiotic]. They then parse the sentence, underlining each part of speech in the correct colour, identify the subject [lifeguard] and ‘parse’ the verb [3rd person singular; simple present]. Point out that ‘fearlessly’ is an adverb made by adding ‹-ly› to the adjective ‘fearless’.

The braveAdj lifeguardN plungesV fearlesslyAdv intoPre the choppyAdj watersN.

Dictation: (This can be done in the spelling lesson or at another time during the week.)

Call out the sentences for the children to write down. Remind them to use speech marks with the correct punctuation in Sentence 1.

1. “The fringe is singed!” exclaimed the stranger.

2. The children had sponge cake and a drink of orange.

3. They arranged to exchange messages on the internet.

The Grammar 5 Handbook is a comprehensive resource for teaching grammar, spelling and punctuation The Grammar 5 Handbook is designed to follow The Phonics Handbook and the Handbooks for Grammar 1 to 4. It provides extensive photocopiable material and a wealth of practical advice for teaching children in their sixth school year.

The Grammar 5 Handbook is intended to:

• extend and refine the children’s understanding of the grammar already taught, • introduce new elements of grammar, such as the past participle, transitive and intransitive verbs, phrasal verbs and the perfect tenses, • teach new spelling patterns systematically, with particular emphasis on prefixes, suffixes and root words, • improve vocabulary and comprehension, and introduce homographs, homonyms and heteronyms • further develop dictionary and thesaurus skills, and • reinforce the teaching in The Grammar 4 Handbook.

As part of the Jolly Phonics programme, the teaching is multisensory, active and progresses at a challenging pace. It places emphasis on consolidating the children’s learning and helping them to apply their skills. Each part of speech is taught with its own action and colour. The actions enliven the teaching and make the learning easier. The colours, which are useful for identifying parts of speech in sentences, match those used by Montessori Schools. Like The Phonics Handbook, the Handbooks for Grammar 1 to 5 provide all the essential teaching ideas.

The pages are slightly wider than A4 so that copies can be made without showing the binding.

The Grammar 5 Handbook is part of the Jolly Phonics programme.

Outstanding results are achieved with Jolly Phonics around the world.
