Spelling

This week, we are learning about homophones. Homophones are words that sound the same, but have different meanings and spellings. 

Look at the video about homophones: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zqhpk2p/articles/zc84cwx 

Can you complete the quiz underneath the video?

Task: Can you choose 3 of the words you see in the video and write a sentence? Draw a picture underneath the homophone to show what it means e.g.

I like to visit the sea because it is so much fun!

Reading

Log onto reading planet, read a book and do the quiz.

This term we will look at one of our values of fairness and how different faiths view fairness. Watch this video. Then think about what fairness means? What about being equal? Does fairness always mean that everyone is equal?
