This week’s spellings are all connectives – words that join two sentences together. Using these words makes children’s writing a lot more interesting and complex and as such is a writing target for most of the class.
Children should practise using them in sentences – this week’s homework is designed to make this easier. Once children have discussed verbally, they should practise writing some of the connectives in sentences too.
