Year 2 SPaG Summer Term
Year 2 SPaG Scheme – Summer Term
Spectacular SPaG is a structured, time-saving scheme that makes teaching grammar, punctuation and spelling easy and engaging. The Summer block includes 8 lessons, each aligned with small steps from the DfE’s English Appendix 2: Vocabulary, Grammar and Punctuation.
You’ll also find the Year 2 Summer spelling strand, which supports progression across Key Stage 1. Each weekly pack includes a spelling list, LSCWC sheet, dictation passage, handwriting sheets in your chosen font and Spelling Rules PowerPoints to introduce the spellings for each week. These can be adapted to your scheduled spelling sessions and align with the rest of the SPaG scheme.
Every SPaG lesson includes a PowerPoint presentation, activity sheet and differentiated worksheet. The activity sheets focus on hands-on and practical tasks, while the worksheets help consolidate skills through writing. Vocabulary is aligned with the Year 2 spelling curriculum and simplified where needed for clarity.
Lessons are flexible and can be delivered as short 15–30 minute sessions or spread across multiple days depending on your timetable and class needs.
