Spelling

Commonly Misspelt Words.

The following 54 commonly misspelt words are to be learnt at home throughout this year. Year 7 & 8 students will be tested on these words at least twice a term. These tests will happen without warning. Once they achieve 100% the children are exempt from future tests. A paper copy of this list will be sent home. This sheet can be used to tick off words as they are mastered and highlight words that are being focused on. Choose small groups of words to focus on each week.
