For this week’s homework, the children will be learning 10 new spellings. Well done to all of those children who improved their scores from last week, not forgetting those who maintained 10/10 – your daily practise is not in vain. I know next week, there will be an even bigger improvement in scores. The focus this week is on another suffix ‘tion.’
In addition to this, the children will need to solve word problems for Maths but will firstly need to identify which operation (+/-) to use. Be careful – some questions may be a 2-step word problem.
Finally, a ‘show me what you know’ about homophones. We use them so often but it’s importance that the children are aware of the different meanings of the spellings of homophones.
Challenge: Can you list some homophones, or even near homophones?
