Structured spelling lessons for Year 2/Primary 3. ELS Essential Spelling provides three spelling lessons per week throughout Year 2/Primary 3. The format and structure of the programme mirrors that used in the ELS systematic synthetic phonics programme. The lessons cover phonics at Phase 6 alongside the requirements of the National Curriclum for Year 2. This large A0 poster should be displayed in the classroom to support children to use the GPCs on the poster to spell words.
