Year 2 Spelling: Worksheets and Activities

Share this post, year 2 spelling, table of contents.

In Year 2, students will start digging deeper into phonic terminology, methods, and rules. For example, they might focus on one particular pattern or sound within a word and see if there are any other words with the same pattern/sound:

Friend ly Happi ly Faithful ly Love ly

The similarity in these words is the sound “ly” makes at the end of words. For students to understand this, they must have daily exposure to phonics.

Spelling as part of the national curriculum:

Remembering what students have done in the past year is essential before introducing new words. Therefore, teachers go over Year 1 material so students can apply it in their new class.

The statutory requirements vary. You should refer to the National Curriculum for more detailed information.

What Year 2 focuses on:

There are so many areas of spelling and phonics teachers will focus on to help Year 2 students become confident spellers.  

What is learnt:

Students will learn how to segment words, so they can spell them correctly. If you’d like to see the complete list of sounds students are expected to learn, please refer to the National Curriculum.

These are pairs of words that sound the same but are spelt differently. For more information on homophones, check out our blog .

Common exception words

Also known as tricky words. These words are those whose spelling doesn’t follow its phonetic sound. For example: pass, climb, improve…

For more information on common exception words, click here .

Contractions

Contractions are missing letters that are shown by an apostrophe. “They’re” means “they are”. “It’s” means “it is.”

In Year 2, students will learn the singular possessive apostrophe. The reason we use apostrophes is to either show missing letters (contractions) like for example “I am” becomes “I’m”, or showing possession, for example: “Emile’s shoes”

For more on apostrophes, click here.

Suffixes are morphemes – which are a group of letters that can mean something on their own – that are added at the end of words. Those words are known as root or root words. Whereas, prefixes are morphemes that are added at the start of a word.

Common suffixes include: -ing, -er, -y, -ly, -ness, -es, -ed… etc.

How spelling is taught

Phonics is a way that students learn spelling, they do this by learning all forty-four different sounds the English language has, they’re known as phonemes. Teachers will start by going over previously learnt words from the Year 1 spelling curriculum, meanwhile introducing new words.

Students will be given weekly spelling lists to learn at home, although they are also included in the classroom for maximum retention. Because of student’s young age, they are set 8-10 words a week to learn, this is to ensure they are learning but not overwhelmed.

Some new spellings include:

Badge, energy, race, table, camel, metal, pencil, fossil, cry, copied, patting, enjoyment, etc…

For the complete, national curriculum list. Please click here .

Correct the spelling

You can use your interactive whiteboard, or the worksheets provided for this activity. Simply show your students words that they know, however they are spelt incorrectly. It is up to the students to decide on the correct spelling.

You could ask them if they can spot the spelling mistake, and if they do, to point it out. Then, ask your students to swap their work with another classmate. They can then mark each other’s work.

PDF version includes answers.

Worksheets with Emile

Worksheets are a classic way of helping students spell better. Following the “look, say, cover, spell, and check” method, students can fully learn the required words given by the government on the National Curriculum. Download your free worksheets below!

Interactive Spelling games

A good way to engage your students with spelling is by using interactive games. Learning with Emile has been designed by teachers for teachers and students. Learning with Emile has tons of resources, especially for spelling and phonics.

If you haven’t tried Learning with Emile, why not request your free demo today!

Spelling Menu

This great idea is credited to Windy Nook Primary School . The goal of this exercise is to get students to explore their words for the week in different ways. Through the use of repetition, students will not only remember how the word is spelt, but they will have also understood why it is spelt that way.

Make use of Lego’s

Using Lego’s are a fantastic way to get your students excited to learn their spelling. There are so many activities that you and your class can take part in, here are a few ideas:

  • Write one letter per small Lego and get your students to create words from them.
  • You can also write words on bigger pieces of Lego and ask your students to form simple sentences.
  • Mix up letters and words and get your students to create more complicated sentences.

spelling homework sheets year 2

Your child will learn to segment in order to spell words. This means that they will break words down to their phonemes, and then figure out which graphemes represent them. They will then write down the graphemes to spell out the word.

For a full list of the sounds that children will learn to spell in Year 2, take a look at the National Curriculum spelling appendix .

Learning new spellings for phonemes, alongside some new words for each new spelling

In Year 2, your child will use phonics to read and spell new words. They will continue to learn different ways of representing the same sound (for example, the -le used at the end of ‘table’ and the less-common -el used in ‘squirrel’). A full list of the sounds your child will learn to spell in Year 2 can be found in the National Curriculum spelling appendix .

Homophones are words that are spelled differently and have different meanings, but are pronounced in the same way. They are often confused in children’s writing. In Year 2, children will be taught the difference between:

there/their/they’re here/hear see/sea bare/bear one/won sun/son to/too/two be/bee blue/blew night/knight

Spelling common exception words

In some English words, the spelling of the word doesn’t appear to fit with the phonemes that your child has learnt so far. These are often called ‘common exception words’ or ‘ tricky words ’. In Year 2, your child will learn to spell lots of exception words often used in writing. They include:

door, floor, poor, because, find, kind, mind, behind, child, children, wild, climb, most, only, both, old, cold, gold, hold, told, every, everybody, even, great, break, steak, pretty, beautiful, after, fast, last, past, father, class, grass, pass, plant, path, bath, hour, move, prove, improve, sure, sugar, eye, could, should, would, who, whole, any, many, clothes, busy, people, water, again, half, money, Mr, Mrs, parents, Christmas

To practise spelling common exception words, download our Year 2 common exception words worksheet .

Spelling more contractions

In contractions, the apostrophe shows where a letter or letters would be if the words were written in full (for example, don’t  instead of do not ).

It’s means it is (for example, ‘ It’s raining’) or sometimes it has (‘ It’s been raining)’, but the apostrophe is not used for the possessive (‘The car parked in it’s space’ would not be correct; the correct form would be ‘The car parked in its space’). Common contractions used in Year 2 include: can’t , didn’t , hasn’t , couldn’t , it’s , I’ll .

Learning the singular possessive apostrophe

Apostrophes are used for two main purposes, both of which will be taught to children in Year 2:

  • Showing contractions (missing letters). For example, ‘I’m’ for ‘I am’ or ‘shouldn’t’ for ‘should not’.
  • Showing possession, who or what something belongs to. For example, ‘Paul’s bike’ or ‘the girl’s voice’.

Adding suffixes like -ment, -ness, -ful, -less, and -ly to spell longer words

Suffixes are morphemes (groups of letters that mean something on their own) that are added at the end of a root or root word to change the meaning. Prefixes are morphemes added at the front of a word. Over the course of Year 2, your child will learn about some of the most common suffixes to spell longer words, including: -ment , -ness , -ful , -less, -ly .

How to help at home

There are lots of ways you can help your Year 1 child with spelling. Here are our top ideas.

1. Practise phonics

Phonics  is the main way your child will learn to spell at the start of primary school. You can use phonics by encouraging your child to spell a word by breaking it up into individual sounds and then matching those sounds to the letters of the alphabet.

Reminding children to segment ‘frog’ into its four sounds – ‘f’ ‘r’ ‘o’ ‘g’ – sounds like such a basic way of supporting spelling, but practising it is very important if it is to become second nature. Take a look at our  phonics page  to find out more.

Video: What is phonics?

2. help with spelling homework.

Some schools send spelling words home to learn in Year 2, while others just use   phonics   sessions at school to teach spelling. If words do come home as a list to learn (perhaps for a spelling test), then helping your child to learn them can be really helpful. If they are struggling to remember them, you might:

‘which letters are making the ‘ay’ sound here? Yes, it’s the ‘ai’, just like in ‘gain’ and ‘Spain’. That’s different to the ‘ay’ sound in ‘play’, isn’t it?’
  • Use over-pronunciation. So for  Wednesday , encourage children to say  Wed-nes-day  as they write. There are lots of words which feature sounds that aren’t always pronounced clearly (such as words ending in   -ed ), and over-emphasising these while spelling them out can help fix the spelling in your child’s memory.
  • Ask your child to write down the words that they need to remember how to spell. The physical act of writing the words by hand helps to anchor the spelling in children’s memories and encourages them to think about the letters that represent the sounds in the word. Typing the words into a PC or tablet isn’t as effective.
  • Focus your child’s attention on the tricky bits in a word by asking them to highlight them. For example, show them that   said   has ‘ai’ in the middle and ask them to write the word, and then highlight or underline this part to help them remember. There are few resources more motivating than a highlighter pen for primary-aged children!

3. Play spelling games

Video playlist: how can i help my child with spag.

Charlotte Raby offers her expert advice for helping your child develop their grammar, punctuation, and spelling skills at home.

For example, your child may have to learn ‘room took hoop foot book’. They could make up a silly sentence such as ‘The boy took his book across the room but got his foot caught in a hoop’. Why not draw illustrations to go with the sentences?

4. Find the right resources
