Spelling Goal Setting
Become a spelling detective! Notice what you already do well, choose one skill to improve, and make a plan you can follow. There can be more than one good answer for the reflection questions.
Spot your spelling strengths
Think about the words you write in stories, messages and schoolwork.
1.Choose the statement that best describes how you feel about spelling today.
- I feel confident with most words.
- I can spell familiar words, but some patterns trip me up.
- I want to build confidence with many words.
- I am not sure yet.
2.Which spelling skill would you most like to improve? Pick one and name an example word or pattern that makes you think of it.
Choose a goal you can reach
A useful goal is specific: it says what you will practise and how you will check your progress.
3.Ari wants to improve spelling. Which is the clearest goal for her to work on this fortnight?
- I will get better at spelling.
- I will practise six words with the 'igh' pattern and ask someone to test me on Friday.
- I will write more.
- I will never make a spelling mistake.
4.Write one spelling goal of your own. Include a skill or word pattern, something you will do, and when you will check your progress.
5.You are practising the words 'because', 'different' and 'favourite'. Choose one practice idea that would help you remember their spelling.
- Look closely at each word, cover it, write it from memory, then check it.
- Copy each word without looking at how it is spelt.
- Break a word into parts or notice a tricky letter group.
- Practise once, then avoid the words.
6.Plan two short ways you could practise your goal this week. Include when you might do each one.
Make your action plan
Small, regular practice can help a new spelling pattern stick.
7.How many times each week is a realistic amount for you to practise your goal?
8.Who or what could help you practise and check your spelling goal?
9.How will you know you are making progress? Describe one way to check your spelling and what success might look like.
10.A spelling goal can change if it is too easy or too tricky. If your practice feels too hard after a few days, what is one sensible adjustment you could make?
