Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar
Our teaching follows the National Curriculum expectations for each year group to ensure progression of skills and knowledge. We use Grammarsaurus to support the teaching of key punctuation and grammar from Year 2 upwards, alongside Spelling Shed.Spelling
Writing
At Kells Lane Primary School, we intend to create confident and purposeful writers, who have good knowledge of different writing purposes and good awareness of audience needs. We aim to support and guide children to build the necessary skills and writing techniques that they need to become independent and effective writers. As they progress through school, the children of Kells Lane Primary School are immersed in a carefully planned range of genres and, with each one, build understanding of
• the purpose for the writing,
• the intended impact of grammar and writing techniques,
• the effect of vocabulary choice on the readers’ thoughts and feelings and
• how to write effectively.
