Spellings (Alternative Pronunciation of a) for Mrs Duffy’s and Mrs Taylor’s Classroom Phonics Group

Date: 27th Apr 2020 @ 4:31pm

A big hello to all of you

I am sure you have been making the most of the last few sunny days and having great fun in your gardens.  Maybe some of you have had your paddling pools out?

If you haven’t been on your Education City Maths work that I have prepared for you, so far, then please take a look back at the blogs where I have shown you how to get into your folders.  I removed the time work on Friday and replaced it with some comparing and ordering of numbers and place value tasks for you to complete.  The adding and subtracting tasks are also still in your folders.

Now for this week’s spellings.  Please learn to read and spell these words that contain these rules.  You would also benefit from writing sentences containing the words with the correct punctuation, conjunctions and adjectives.

Please find the words that Mrs Duffy’s and Mrs Taylor’s classroom phonics group need to learn below:

Please also practise spelling other simple words that contain these rules.
