Curriculum purpose

Learning objective: Select spelling, punctuation, homophone and tense corrections using explicit instructions.

Curriculum anchor: England English programme of study: selected Year 2 activities; partial support only.

This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.

For parents and carers

Proofreading Lab provides guided Year 2 practice matching error categories and selecting corrections or complete sentences under explicit spelling, punctuation and tense instructions. It distinguishes misspelt words from wrong homophone choices and offers partial support for topic 7617. It does not assess independent error-type identification, proofreading of the learner’s own writing, every Year 2 spelling rule or punctuation mark, unrestricted rewriting or complete topic mastery. Take a break when you need one.
