Spellings (20mins) should be practised for a short time each day, using the words given in sentences.

You need to:

 • look at each word

• say the word

• copy the word in first space

• cover the words and try to write it from memory

• check to see if they are right

This week your spellings contain the suffix –ible and –able which we have been practising for handwriting. Look at the way the suffix changes the meaning of the word.
