Please complete pages 4 and 5 in the CGP comprehension book “Aesop’s Fables”. You will need to bring this back to school, completed, Monday 19.09.22. We will mark this as a class on a Monday.
Spellings:
The spelling we are focusing on this week are: accident, accidentally, actual and actually. Please practise these at home. You will be tested on all the words on the Year 3/4 word list each half term.
Remember:
Keep recording your reading daily reading in your home/school diary, write three comments about the book you are currently reading and make sure your parents have signed it. I will collect them on Friday and have a look at your fabulous work.
Many thanks, have a wonderful week!
Miss Norton and Mr Brown.
