Access everything you need to teach spelling effectively this term with our Year 5 spelling strand autumn accompanying resources, aligned with the National Curriculum and part of the Mrs Mactivity SPaG scheme. These materials support the Year 5 Spelling Strand – Autumn Term Overview and Rationale and help pupils develop fluency, pattern recognition and secure understanding of spelling rules.
Each week introduces a new spelling rule or focus, building progressively towards mastery of the Year 5 statutory spelling requirements. These Year 5 spelling strand autumn accompanying resources include:
- Weekly Spelling Lists featuring words with silent letters, homophones, and statutory word list items
- Handwriting Sheets in precursive, cursive and joined cursive styles for flexible practice
- Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check Sheets for structured daily repetition
- Spelling Activity Cards with engaging independent practice tasks such as pyramid and rainbow spellings
These differentiated resources are designed for use across the term, supporting weekly lessons, interventions or at-home spelling practice. Pupils apply their learning through accompanying dictation passages and PowerPoint presentations that introduce each spelling rule.
Use alongside the Year 5 Autumn Spelling Strand and full SPaG scheme for clear, structured spelling progression from Year 1 to Year 6.
