Super Spellers!

This week in spelling, we revisited last term’s work on the suffixes -ed and -ing. We explored how these endings can help us show when something happened and how they can change the job a word does in a sentence.

The highlight was our matching game! The children hunted for words that shared the same root and looked closely at what happened to the spelling when each suffix was added. They did brilliantly at explaining their choices and using the spelling rules we’d revisited to work out some of the trickier matches.
