Good afternoon everyone! I hope you have been having a lovely weekend despite the crazy weather. We only have a few weeks left of Primary 5: where has the time gone? Please keep reading for your homework and reminders for this week.
Spelling: Lists 3 and 10 should be completed this week. Each word should be written out 3 times in your spelling jotter. Please choose 6 words to use in an uplevelled sentence. You should use ambitious VCOP as much as possible in your writing. Wow me with your great sentences this week.
Reading: Your new core reader was issued on Friday. There will be no written homework as we will continue to complete our comprehension tasks for the core readers in class. As always, if there is any vocabulary you are unsure of, please take a note of it and we will discuss it in class.
Please remember to read aloud to someone at home and try to use expression where needed. Your reading feedback form should be completed (if possible) by the person hearing you read aloud. This task should be completed for Thursday. Your core reader should be brought to school with you each Thursday to allow you to participate in the class lesson. There are still some of you forgetting to do so.
