Having already bought Write Like a Ninja and Maths Like a Ninja for
our KS2 classes, Spell Like a Ninja is a fantastic addition to the
collection. Bringing together all the phonic and spelling
objectives, along with handy hints, tips and strategies, this is a
huge hit with the children and staff!
*Jo Reeves, KS2 Phase Lead @jojojo90*
Spell Like a Ninja separates different spelling patterns into
easy-to-manage chunks, visually represents the syllables, prefixes
and suffixes within the words and provides a wealth of activity
suggestions for exploring different patterns. Packed full of tips
for helping children to improve their spelling, it’s an invaluable
tool for any primary teacher!

Another superb book from Andrew Jennings that will make a huge
difference to young people with their spelling. Whether it's in the
classroom or at home, this well designed and engaging book should
be the 'go to' resource for improving children's spelling and their
literacy skills.
*Jon Tait, education author, leader and speaker @TeamTait*
An essential resource for any teacher looking to make spelling fun,
engaging and memorable!
*Jon Kirk, English Language Teacher*
The clear explanations, easy-to-use reference pages and spelling
practise ideas, not to mention the challenge of the Ninja tasks and
the mini-mastery techniques, ensure Spell Like a Ninja is
everything you could ask for from a spelling book and more. It’s
engaging, immersive and highly accessible, linking spelling,
grammar and technical vocabulary with a seasoning of humour to help
combat the statutory curriculum.
*Alison Gutteridge, Head of English*
I love that Spell Like a Ninja teaches children (and parents!) the
spelling rules and patterns, not just lists of words to remember.
It clearly explains the tricky vocabulary that gets used in
schools, so that parents can support their children's spelling
journey.
*Lindsey Fekete, Reach Online Tutoring*
Alongside the Write Like a Ninja book, this would be a perfect
addition to any writing lesson and a great resource for children to
use alone and alongside an adult. Children love the independence
this gives them with their writing and it enables them to become
more proficient spellers with fun activities to do at school and
home.
*Amy Baines, classroom teacher*
This is a one-stop-shop for teachers and parents looking to help
children with their spelling. With each new book, Vocabulary Ninja
proves himself to be the support that education needs!
*Dean Boddington, assistant headteacher and editor of the No Shelf
Control newsletter, @MisterBodd*
This pocket-sized book is packed full of strategies and resources
to enable you to support your primary school children and transform
them into spelling ninjas!
*ReadingZone*
With its wealth of tips, rules, and remedies, this book transforms
spelling from a daunting task into an exhilarating challenge.
