Like last week, we’re practising words which have split diagraphs. The last ‘e’ in the words isn’t a sound that we say, but it works with another letter to change, for example, slim (with a short ‘i’ sound) to slime (with a longer ‘i’ sound).
These will be tested on Friday 03 February.
| cake |
| smile |
| mile |
| bake |
| made |
| pine |
| slime |
| lake |

The spellings this week are all words which have a short vowel sound and require a ‘double up’ after the short vowel sound (like the ‘o’ in drop, which sounds different to a longer ‘oh’ sound).

| 1. | stopped |
| 2. | ripped |
| 3. | dropped |
| 4. | spotted |
| 5. | stepped |
| 6. | messily |
