Special Needs: Mnemonics Pack 2

Subject: English
Level: Primary
Age Group: General
Order Number: 5160

These two packs provide visually supported words which are often incorrectly spelt, and other spellings which developing readers aged 7-14 and Special Needs pupils find difficult to learn, as well as sequencing rhymes.

The sheets can be used as an aid to memory, to look at patterns in words and to help learn spellings. They are an ideal yet simple classroom display resource and can also be used to tempt reluctant readers to make their own mnemonics as a fun and challenging exercise.

With clear links to basic skills and the National Strategies for Literacy and Teaching and Learning these materials provide a useful additional approach to supporting young people who have not yet enjoyed success in mastering spelling or reading, and who need support with memory strategies.
