Overview

With many schools now using apps and online resources to teach spelling, we look at the key subject knowledge required to ensure that spelling is taught and not just caught. During this course we will:

• Expand understanding of the terminology associated with spelling

• Demonstrate practical approaches to teach spelling

• Provide course delegates with ‘take away’ ideas to embed in their teaching.
