Spelling. Literacy Progress Unit (for Use with Small Groups). Key Stage 3: National Strategy.
Department for Education and Skills, London (England).
Developed for use in small groups, this unit is intended to help Key Stage 3 pupils in England who have attained Level 3 in English to improve their spelling further. The sequence of 18 sessions revisits and builds on objectives from the primary "Framework" in the way envisaged in the "Framework for Teaching English: Years 7, 8, and 9." The pace of each 20-minute session is deliberately fast, and each session is built around the following teaching sequence: remember, model, try, apply, and secure. Sessions are linked with a pupil workbook called the "Spellofax" which can be made into a booklet for each pupil. Appended are weekly overview sheets and tracking sheets. (RS)
