Your P4 has been sent home with their own ‘Spelling Grid’ today.
The grid contains 12 words that they have found tricky to spell since returning to school. Your Primary 4 has also been given a lined jotter that they may use to practise these words.
There is no expectation that your child learns all 12 words this week, we will also be working on spelling the words in class and they will be updated when your child is confident spelling them. However, encouragement and help to learn them at home would be much appreciated! ☺️
This week we have been using the ‘word shape’ to practise our words. Ask your P4 to show you how this is done.
I have added a picture of our spelling strategies below so you can try some at home.
Number Talks
P4 have been making excellent progress with our number talks. Ask your child to complete the following calculations using one of our strategies. (Partitioning, compensation, adding up in chunks)
Check out the video of Hannah demonstrating the partitioning strategy.
