Additionally, there is an activity for each rule which includes reading, spelling and writing in context. This is in the workbook Fun Rules for Tricky Spellings available within this set. Key features include: An engaging story that connects the spelling rules together and gives them meaning, making them easier to remember Quirky and colourful illustrations, allowing children to visualise the spelling rules and the way they work in the English language Developed with feedback from teachers and students, this is an invaluable resource for teachers and parents looking to support learners who find spelling a challenge, or who are learning English as an additional language.
