Common questions

What do Year 7 students learn about spelling patterns & rules?

Phonics patterns, suffixes, prefixes and tricky words. At Year 7, our resources focus on: adding suffixes; building vocabulary; knowing that -ful means full of and -less means without; changing y to i before a suffix.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Pair a reading comprehension with a writing prompt on a similar text type.
  2. Use the model answers and success criteria on the answer sheet to talk through what 'good' looks like.
  3. Keep spelling practice short and daily; test on Friday.
  4. Edit a piece of writing together using the grammar worksheet for the skill they're learning.
