Writing more common exception words
I can correctly write common exception words in cursive handwriting.
Lesson details
Key learning points
- Common exception words do not follow regular spelling or phonics rules.
- Letters in the common exception words will be joined using a range of joins depending on the letters in the word.
- The first letter always has a lead in and the last letter always has a lead out.
- There is appropriate spacing between the letters.
- You don't lift your pencil when forming the joins.
Common misconception
Children may try to use the same join for every connection.
Ensure the children are given plenty of reminders about the four joins and how the join used depends on the letters joining. Use the CFU's within this lesson to help explain this.
