Spelling Shed - Junior 2 To Junior 6

This year we are using the Spelling Shed programme as part of the children’s learning from Junior 2 through to Junior 6. The programme helps children to learn spelling rules systematically during both teacher-led lessons in school, and through a range of online games at home. Each game gives four different degrees of support in the form of difficulty modes; Easy, Medium, Hard and Extreme. Higher levels allow a higher score to be achieved, but children can practise as much as they like on lower levels before trying to gain higher ones. The scores achieved give a league position and each class has its own combined league position within a school league as well as the world league.

Your child’s English teacher will continue to send home lists of spelling words to learn each week, and, from next half term, they will also set weekly ‘assignments’ on Spelling Shed to complete at home. English teachers will be able to monitor your child’s progress with these ‘assignments’ via the teacher portal. Spelling tests will continue as a written test each week.

Your child will bring home their login information in their reading diary on Friday 18 October. Please can you support them to access the platform over the half term break, so they are familiar with the set-up and can complete their first games. Logins have all been tested in school, but please contact your child’s English teacher if you experience any difficulties with access. A Parents Log-in Guide is also attached  for your information.

We hope your child will enjoy using the programme and that you will find it a useful addition to our provision.

The E-Consent link will close on Sunday 3 November and will not be able to be extended.

Please note that the E-Consent link has been set up and is managed by the NHS Immunisation Team, and that the school does not have access to see who has or has not completed the form.
