Boost spelling skills : fun strategies to improve primary school children's spelling skillsBook 3

The Boost Spelling Skills series provides strategies to improve primary school pupils' spelling skills, making them more confident readers and writers.

Boost Spelling Skills 3 contains strategies, tips and practice activities to help upper KS2 pupils develop and improve word pattern recognition.

It is closely aligned to the statutory requirements and spelling word lists in the National Curriculum in England for Years 5 and 6. Teaching children to spell is essential if we want them to become confident writers.

Good spellers can write more fluently, as they don't have to pauseto consider how each word should be spelt.

Furthermore, children with good spelling skills are more likely to make adventurous vocabulary choices and be better at reading. The flexible worksheets can be used both with groups of children or individual pupils and are particularly beneficial for providing reinforcement for slower learners or those children who are struggling with spelling.
