How to help at home:

The following document contains games and practise methods that the children are familiar with from our Scode lessons. They can explain to you, how they use them to help learn and embed their spellings. Please use them to help the children practise those spellings, especially the ones we are finding tricky (see weekly homework page for any occurences).

Have fun and enjoy!
