Today we played with our spelling words. We worked in small groups and worked out ways to represent our words using pictures and images, this will help us remember how to spell our words correctly.

Here are some examples:

Word = goat

The word was split into go and at, the guys drew a traffic light for ‘go’ and a cat, with the ‘c’ scored out for ‘at’. Well done, really creative (the drawing is on the board!).

Word = Mummy

The image used was of an Egyptian mummy! Great imagination!

Word = retrain

The guys drew a picture of Reamass ( she said she felt famous!!!) and then removed part of her name leaving the ‘re’ and then added a picture of a train! Great work!

Word = rocking

What great imaginations this group had, they used the image of Rocky the boxer (complete with  boxing ring), they then removed the ‘y’ leaving the word rock. The next part of the word was represented with an ink bottle with the ‘k’ removed and a ‘g’ added.
