I love teaching this #spelling rule ‘adding ing and ed’ Students see their own progress instantly... but all rules need to be revisited #repetition. There is little point in teaching something once. Don’t practise till you get it right, practise till you can’t get it wrong!

Three simple sentences to get students actively recalling and repeating information which ensure #spelling rules are embedded. Are you right? Are you sure? Tell me why?

Getting ready for Year 7 . Amy’s vocabulary and reading skills are already brilliant but this shows how everyone can always improve. @LexonikST teaches a methodology so that students can use it regardless of ability. It takes everyone to the next level. Enjoy Amy - start flying!

So enjoying teaching (online) an 8 yr old. Witnessing the progress a #dyslexic student can make using @LexonikST methodologies in such a short period of time is almost unbelievable. #phonology #automaticity Working on vowel digraphs this afternoon. I love teaching this step
