Free printable rainbow writing sheets
These printable rainbow writing sheets give you a quick-to-set-up, visually-inviting way to learn spelling words.
Practise is the key! By writing out a word several times your child will build up a ‘muscle-memory’ of how the word is formed. Using the colours of the rainbow adds an extra-sensory element – and remember to say each word out loud as your write too.
You can print as many pages as you need for your whole class, or for your child to use with their spelling list each week – and see below for an idea on how to make one sheet re-useable.
You can combine this style of rainbow writing with a layered rainbow writing exercise or a rainbow salt tray. Give your child plenty of variety, keeping the activities fun, and memorable.
How to use this rainbow writing sheet
:: print the sheet from our Creative Kids Learning Library (see below)
:: set it out along with a rainbow of pencils or pens: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet
:: you could laminate the sheet or place it inside a plastic folder, and use whiteboard markers, if you want to re-use one sheet over and over
:: invite your child to practise writing out their spelling words along each arc of the rainbow, using the correct rainbow colour
:: you might write one word along the red arc, another word along the orange arc. If your child need extra practice with a word they are finding difficult they could fill in the entire rainbow just with that word – in all seven colours
