Spelling - Home learning - Sound e-e

For home learning, students are focusing on the sound 'e-e' with a variety of engaging activities designed to enhance their spelling skills. They are provided with differentiated spelling lists that include words such as 'theme', 'scene', 'compete', 'complete', 'evening', 'delete', 'Chinese', 'obsolete', 'concrete', and 'sincere'. To extend their learning, there is also a challenge word: 'Japanese'. Blank boxes are available for any additional words that the children may be encouraged to learn.

The 'Look, Say, Cover, Write and Check' method is a key part of the learning process, where students look at the word, say it aloud, cover it, attempt to write it from memory, and then check to see if they have spelled it correctly. This technique is applied to words such as 'theme', 'compete', 'evening', 'Chinese', 'concrete', 'scene', 'complete', 'delete', 'obsolete', and 'sincere'. Additionally, the 'Read and Match' activity encourages students to match words like 'theme', 'scene', 'evening', 'athlete', and 'swede' with their corresponding images or definitions. Students are also prompted to write sentences using the words they have learned to solidify their understanding. For a fun twist, the 'Real and Nonsense words' exercise challenges children to identify real words, such as 'delete' and 'athlete', from a mix of real and nonsensical options, further enhancing their phonetic and spelling skills.
