Restart and Return -Spelling

Spelling

Phonics and spelling at key stage 1 and key stage 2 are a vital part of the learning journey for children.  Our Restart and Recovery Learning Programme from our Student Ambassadors offers a fantastic suite of downloadable audio and/or video lessons to act as a key stimulus for pupils. The resources below focus on spelling skills in line with the NI curriculum.  Teachers and parents are advised that the video lessons and downloadable resource files below will be in the form of downloadable audio slides and/or video lessons. All lessons come with a parent guide/resource pack to support adult supervision during the activities (appropriate to the age of the child/young person).  This may be a parent or a teacher (if at school). . Creative use of multi-media design and teacher voice is a powerful tool to support the child and parents.  Powerpoints may be downloaded with teacher voice and packs are in pdf for ease of printing.  Video lessons for pupils may be paused and rewatched also.

Key Stage 1

This resource offers a game-like interaction for children and young people – using the Spelling Bee.  The child with an ipad or laptop may interact with the pack in a fun like manner and listen to the teacher on video to help them throughout.  Parents and teachers please note the resource guide/pack to support active learning.
