Description

Spelling Book 1 supports the National Curriculum requirements for Year 1 and covers the following topic areas: segmenting words into phonemes and selecting from alternative spelling; using spelling rules for adding ‘s’ and ‘es’; adding suffixes -ing, -ed and -er, where no change is needed to the root word; dividing words into syllables; applying spelling guidelines (for example, ‘ck’, ‘tch’, ‘ve’, ‘dge’ to the end of words).

A separate accompanying teacher’s guide, Spelling Teacher’s Guide, provides detailed teaching notes that suggest how best to explain and explore each learning point and a separate accompanying teacher’s resource book, Spelling Teacher’s Resource Book, contains photocopy masters that support teaching, assessment and record-keeping. A selection of free downloads is also available from the Schofield & Sims website.
