Good morning everyone, I hope you enjoyed your break! Didn’t the time fly? I wonder what you have all been up to during your holiday, have you been eating lots of Easter chocolate? I have been doing a lot of baking recently which my family have been very happy about!
Literacy:
Today for our literacy task we will be practising our spelling!
Monday 20th April
Spelling
I can practise my -sure and -ture endings.
Warm Up:
Write the numbers 1-5 in your jotters. Copy the sentences into your jotter, using a word from the box to fill each gap.
Main Task:
Copy the two lists of words into your jotter. Draw a line to join the related words.
For example:
enclose failure
fail pleasure
depart enclosure
moist pressure
furnish departure
press furniture
please moisture
Then, use three of your new ‘ure’ words in a sentence.
Extension:
Each of the words in the box has a related word with a ‘ure’ ending. Write out the words in the box and write the related ‘ure’ word beside it. For example:
- futuristic future
I have set up a Sumdog spelling challenge for you to do this week also!

Over the Easter holidays I painted some stones and left them around my village in the hopes of spreading some positivity during these difficult times. Someone spotted one and posted on the village Facebook page that it made them smile. It was really fun so I really recommend it if you are up for a spot of art today! 🎨 🖌
