 It can be 
                quite difficult to learn spellings. Sometimes people use tricks 
                to help them remember how to spell certain words. One trick 
                is to make up a little rhyme using the letters of the word that 
                you are trying to learn. For example, Big Elephants 
                Can Always Understand Small Elephants. If you can 
                remember the rhyme then you'll always know how to spell because! Think of some 
                words that you find hard to spell. Try and see if you can make 
                up a rhyme to help you remember the spelling. It doesn't 
                matter how silly your rhyme is, as long as you remember it! Write your 
                rhyme down and bring it into school. |
