Wednesday 22nd April Spelling test Monday 27th April

 

Well done for all of your hard work with your spellings!

Remember, if nine spellings is proving too much, you can cut down the number you learn each week, some is always better than none!

More suffixes this week, this time, -ly and -less

Think carefully about the spellings you have been learning recently, could you use some of these fantastic words in your very own, ‘Snail and the Whale’ story?

We’d love to see your stories when they are all finished in a few weeks time!

badly
hopeless
penniless
happily
lovely
joyless
slowly
quickly
careless

Here are some games and videos to do with suffixes

Optional spellings for Week 1 of the Easter holidays

We hope you are all well and enjoying the home learning activities for Year 2.

We wouldn’t usually send spellings to learn over the holidays, but we recognise you might want to keep a bit of routine over the break. Here are some common exception words activities that you can try at home.

Easter guess the CEW

Maybe you could play a game of ‘hangman’ using the common exception words for your family to guess?

Easter colour the fish CEW

How many common exception words can you spell reliably? Colour in the fish to see how well you are doing.

If you’d like to still have a spellings test, you can try these words-

clothes, children, parents, beautiful, pretty, whole, every, prove, improve
