P3 Spelling words

For P3 pupils:

Each week, we will post the spelling words we are working on in class. Usually, we will begin working on words on a Monday and will use what we have learned to help us complete dictations on a Friday.

Pupils may choose to work on a core list of words or a challenge list.

As well as working on a particular rule, we will work on two common (or tricky) words each week.

Here are this week’s lists. We are looking at how we can blend two consonants together to help us begin to build a word (e.g. ‘sn’, ‘sp’, ‘sc’). We call these ‘initial consonant blends’.
