Spellings

Well done if you scored 7-10/10 in your spellings this week!   

Spelling groups are written in homework books.  Here are this week's spellings to learn for next Friday:

Here is a 'Spelling Menu' of activities to choose from when practising your spellings.  Choose 1 or 2 different activities a week to support memorising spelling patterns.

These are common exception words all children should be able to read and spell by the end of year 4.

Reading

Well done to our superstar readers this week 

To help us improve, can you read at least 5 times a week at home and sign it in your reading diary?

Here are some helpful questions for you to use to support your reading at home.  Choose a few from each page (or focus on one) to think about and discuss every time you read.

Do you need some inspiration for a new book or author to try?
