Literacy+-+Spelling



Hi, this page is for all of my Spelling work I do in 2011. I will update regularly with information regarding the work we do for spelling in class, test scores etc.

= Term 3: =

This term as I am an advanced speller I have been going onto various spelling websites to improve my vocab range and my gaps. The sites I usually go onto are:

- http://www.freerice.com - http://www.knoword.org - http://www.vocabsushi.com

Next term we will be doing the GAP Anayalsis test for our end of year testing. I am aiming for 100/100.


 * Term 2: **

This Term we have started by learning about different sounds in words. The first activity was Using Oi and Oy words. We also will be doing the GAP analysis test at the end of Term 2 so we are finding our Gaps in the test and practicing so we can improve.

Just recently we did the GAP Anyalysis Test. I scored 99/100 which was annoying as I scored 100 last time we did the test. Anyhow, I will work hard on apostrophes so I can score 100/100.

= **Term 1:** =

On 3rd February 2011 we did the GAP Analysis Test which is test focusing on parts of Spelling (Suffixes, Prefixes etc.) The test is out of 100 and I got 100/100 which is an improvement from last years scores. I am very happy as I was reading my other GAP tests so I knew where I had made mistakes. I am hoping to keep that score for next time we do the test!! :)

At the moment we have been introduced to Spelling City which has a variety of ways to improve in Spelling. the whole class uses it. We all have list words which we learn and then are tested on them. I feel this is a great addition to our spelling. This will hopefully be a tool which we will use all year round.
