Each year is divided into 3 terms. Each term has 12 weekly spelling lessons, providing 36 weeks of learning over the year. There are two weeks in every term (weeks 6 and 12) that focus exclusively on the statutory words. These key words are also integrated into other weeks as appropriate.
Each week has one key Learning Objective. This is taught in three core phases: Learn, Build, and Show. In the Learn phase, there is a slideshow presentation to help introduce key concepts. The Learn, Build and Show sessions can be taught flexibly in 3 sessions, in 2 sessions or in one longer session.
