Good morning Class 4!

How are you all today?

Today is my Mum’s birthday so I will be having a video call party with her and my family later! We seem to have lots of May birthdays in our class coming up very soon!

I hope you have been enjoying learning about The Tempest so far!

Today we are going to learn some more spellings from the Year 3 and 4 spelling list…

(Click the image to enlarge it.)

1.) Please practise these at home in your yellow home learning book. You could write them in your book using look, cover, say and write. Or you could read the list of words and ask someone at home to test you on them.

2.) On the blog, write a definition for two of these words.

3.) On the blog write two sentences using two different words from the list.

Challenge:
Can you write a whole paragraph using all of these spelling words? You will have to think very carefully about your sentences to ensure they are cohesive and make sense!

Don’t forget punctuation too!

I look forward to reading your work!
