Spelling Mastery  

Spelling Mastery began this week for all students in Years 3-6. The nature of these groupings mean that some students are in multi-aged groups streamed across Years 3 and 4 and then, Years 5 and 6. This is often a great learning opportunity for students as they form relationships with peers of different ages, while taking on similar learning challenges. 

The Spelling sessions are based on a mastery learning model which introduces strategies with associated learning tasks to help create a deep understanding. All students remain in the same group throughout the year.  Some students may think that the spelling is easy… this is ok. It is about mastery. Rest assured that the understandings increase in number and complexity as they progress throughout the program. 

If you require any assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s classroom teacher.
