Explicit teaching, I do → we do → you do
The animated teaching deck models each word set before students practise — the teacher shows the sounds, the spelling pattern and the word parts, step by step, exactly as NSW explicit teaching prescribes.
CESE What Works Best 2025 · Explicit teaching
Triple Word Form Theory
Every week studies one word set three ways — Phonological (sound), Orthographic (pattern) and Morphological (meaning) — because skilled spellers draw on all three, not phonics alone.
NSW DoE · Effective reading & spelling instruction
Differentiation that manages cognitive load
Three worksheets every week — ★ Support scaffolds with sound boxes and a word bank, ★★ Core is grade-expected, ★★★ Extension spells from memory and composes — so one word set reaches every student.
CESE · Cognitive load theory
Retrieval & spaced practice
Weekly look-say-cover-write-check and end-of-block exit tickets build retrieval and transcription automaticity, freeing working memory for composition. Aligned to NSW EN1-SPELL-01.
