Improving spelling- year 2/year 3

Post by mh1 »

My son, currently 2 weeks away from the end of Year 2, is in the high achievers group for both Maths and English according to his end of year school report.

However, I feel his main weakness is in English in spelling ability.

I'd like to focus on improving his spelling and would welcome opinions/tips on managing this.

Is there any way to gage if he is on track for his age group?

Are there any age-standardised spelling list that I can compare with?

Many Thanks

He is an abled reader and reads frequently.

There is a list in the National curriculum:
