Spelling with the Jungle Club

The platform is designed for daily use in the classroom for, on average, 10-20 minutes a day, each day of the week. 36 weeks of content is provided, meaning you can revisit skills or take a break from teaching the content.

The pedagogy ensures that children are fully engaged during the whole lesson. A wide range of fun activities are embedded in the platform which pupils engage with as a whole class, in groups and partners.

No, we have designed it to be used flexibly between three to five days per week. Our training and support will provide advice and guidance on how to use the platform.

Older pupils who need to revisit the Year 2 & 3 National Curriculum for Spelling can access the platform. You may want to target the skills your pupils need rather than working through the full year's content to ensure children make accelerated progress. Please see our other FAQs on scaffolding learning and pupils who have not passed the Phonics Screening Check.

There are many ways you can adapt the programme to both support and challenge learners. For instance, children who need support can work with a more able partner or teachers can modify the amount and way the materials are presented. Teachers can also choose words they focus on based on pupil assessments. Our materials are flexible and freely accessible digitally for teachers to customise. Our training and support provide further advice to those using the programme.

The activities and programme are designed to progress in complexity but if you feel appropriate then yes you can! The Scope and Sequence provides a week-by-week overview of the programme content. However, you can use the platform to revisit skills as required.
