Spelling Homework:

Use the Look, Say, Cover, Write and Check to spell your words into your homework jotter 3 times. You should know what spelling group you are in. If you need a new homework jotter, then let your teacher know.

Challenge: Choose 1 of your spelling words and write a sentence for your chosen word. Remember a sentence starts with a capital letter and needs a full stop at the end.
