You will have your spelling words in your jotter already. Please write them out 3 times using the LOOK, COVER, WRITE and CHECK strategy.

You have a choice today, either you can write a sentence for each word or you can write a story which will feature all your words. That could be quite interesting!

Whichever you decide to do, remember your sentence targets – capital letters, full stops, neat writing and interesting sentence starters.

Our new topic is Scottish Islands. We have been looking at the differences between the islands and the mainland. We have each designed an island on a map but in a couple of weeks we will be making a 3D model of our islands. For this we are asking for your help.
