Rac: What subjects are ye doing today?

Ciara: We will have Irish this morning. Then, we will have history.

Ciara: We will go out to the yard at 11 o’clock.

Conor: We will have Maths then.

Ról: I love Maths. I love Maths more than any other subject.

Conor: We will have lunch-time at half past 12. I love lunch-time more than any other

time in the day.

They all start to laugh.

Ciara: He is in the lunch-box. There is beans and jelly in your lunch-boxes.

Mr. Ryan’s Class- Parent Guide to Spellings for Me

Step 1:

To get a good grasp of the programme, you should watch the following videos:

1. What is Spellings for Me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TT1IftBVWi4&t=4s

2. Running Spellings for Me in your class

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaHaiOIZbko&t=194s

Step 2: Have your child log into his/her profile. They can do this on a

PC/laptop/iPad/tablet/smartphone etc. If using a smart phone/tablet, go through

Safari/Google. It is not an app on the App Store/Play Store. Remember do not use Internet Explorer. Microsoft Internet Explorer does not

support programs created after 2016. Spellings for Me was created in 2019.

"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaHaiOIZbko&t=194s"

Follow these instructions: Option 1: 1. Go to the website www.spellingsforme.ie

2. Click 'Login'

3. Change your URL by clicking ' change'

4. Type in your school personal URL

5. Click 'save'

6. Enter your username and password

Here is a quick video if you need further help.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHNES20YeVs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TT1IftBVWi4&t=4shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaHaiOIZbko&t=194shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaHaiOIZbko&t=194shttp://www.spellingsforme.ie/http://www.spellingsforme.ie/http://www.spellingsforme.ie/http://www.spellingsforme.ie/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHNES20YeVs

14

Option 2:

You can create your own school link by typing

https://yourownschoolspersonalurl.spellingsforme.ie With this link you only need to enter your child’s username and password.

Step 3:

Once logged in, let your child begin working on the yellow spelling tests until they get

‘locked out’ i.e. when they have made 96 errors. Once they are locked out of their yellow

spelling tests, they can always practise the blue dictation sentences, or the writing genre

tests. Note: They will not get ticks on these tests as they can take these tests as many times as

they like. There are lots of games/exercises on the ‘Printables’ section of your child’s

profile.

Step 4:

Print out your child’s Learning Words. Log into his/her profile. Under the orange testing

section, you will see a ‘Print Learning Words’ button. The 96 errors will appear in 8 grids

with 12 spellings. This is 8 weeks’ worth of spellings with 12 spellings per week.

Step 5: The next area they will need to know is how to learn their spellings. They will not be

“writing their spellings out 5 times”, having Friday tests or any of the traditional

methods. They will be focusing on a visual approach to learning spellings.

Look at the video “How to Learn your Spellings”.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YxLs4d7DmA&t=15s Look at the attached page “Spelling Pictures Examples” and read through this document

together. Let your child do the "Try These” section either with you or independently.

Talk about the answers. From the ‘Printables’ section of your child’s profile, you can download “Classroom

Displays”. You will see several common letter strings, with a picture.

https://yourownschoolspersonalurl.spellingsforme.ie/https://yourownschoolspersonalurl.spellingsforme.ie/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YxLs4d7DmA&t=15shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YxLs4d7DmA&t=15s

15

Step 6: Cut up the 8 grids of Learning Words and place them into the Spellings for Me workbook

with 1 grid per week. You child could do 3 spellings per day with one of the activities. (Monday-Thursday)

Step 7: After approximately 8 weeks of studying offline, the students should take a Learning

Words Test. (The 96 words that they spelled wrong) This must be unlocked by the

teacher, from the Teacher Dashboard. The teacher then tells the class that the orange

Learning Words tests are open and to log in and do this test.

Step 8:

The student logs in and takes the Learning Words test. The words spelled correctly go

into Mastered Words. Those spelled incorrectly go into the next Learning Words test to

be studied again. Once this Learning Words test has been taken, the yellow spelling tests

unlock once more for the student to “fill up” their Learning Words to 96 words again.

From this step the cycle starts again. Inform your child to take yellow spelling tests until

the orange screen appears, telling them their Learning Words are full once again.

You can also avail of the abundance of spelling resources in the ‘Printables’ section of your

child’s profile. Here there are games, activities and displays. Instructions on how to use each

of the listed resources are included.
