100 high frequency words- what age/year do they need to spell them by?

[MincePieDiet]

As the title says really. What age/year/level are they expected to be able to write these words correctly? Is there a national standard for this?

My DD wrote them and read them at the same time and this was in Reception. There were more like 140 words in our day.

Can any teachers/knowledgeable parents advise? I'm not so much asking when your child could do it but more when it is expected that they can do it.

Also don't know about national standards but DS class are being asked to learn them in year 1, so that's a bit more average than just one child at least!

Depends partly on which ones u mean?
First 100? 200? 300?

Half of them are regular spellings (e.g. a, and, as, at, had, has, that, an, back, can, in, is, it, if ...) and will be learnt as part of basic phonics teaching.

The other half (e.g. I, he, of, the, to, was, first, her, off, they, new ...) clearly take longer to stick. It's good for children to know most of them by the end of Y2, because then they make fewer mistakes in their writing, but some children will continue to misspell quite a few of them for much longer.

I don't think there is a statutory requirement for specific words at Key Stage 1 - see the link already attached in a previous post. There are certain spelling rules which need to be taught and example words linked to those, plus some common exception words - but the examples given are non statutory.

However in Ket Stage 2 there are statutory lists - again see the link.

Thanks for your responses the link was exactly the information I was looking for.
