Spelling

We are going to be recapping our learning so far looking at the suffix -est.

So far we have looked at 3 rules:

Adding est

We have looked at the root words which we can just add est to. For example

highest

lowest

kindest

If a word ends in e, we remove the e before adding est. For example

widest

largest

Words that end in y, we remove the y and add I. For example:

happiest

luckiest

silliest

Words that have one syllable, end in a consonant and have a vowel before it, we double the consonant. For example

biggest

This week we have been learning all about non-fiction texts. We are going to be working towards writing our own on-fiction booklet all about Castles. Before we can do that, we must do our research so that we know exactly what we are writing about.

Maths

Today in maths we are dividing by 2 which is the same as halving. We are dividing into 2 equal groups. We already know our doubles which will really help us today as a double is the opposite of a half! 

Watch Miss Storer's lesson below and have a go at the worksheet and challenge.
