The spellings this week are the same homophones as last week. Children need to keep practising them. They might be tested on any of the words. When practising at home with your child, try to put each word into a sentence so that the meaning of each word and it’s spelling becomes securely embedded.
(For an extra challenge, try creating a sentence with both homophones eg I knew the new toy was a good choice.)
Don’t forget – school is closed on Friday so the test will be a day earlier!
