The spellings this week are also contracted words. There are four new ones:
- I am – I’m
- I have – I’ve
- I will – I’ll
- I would – I’d
The children will be tested on these new ones and four from last week’s list.

We’re still focussing on irregular verbs this week so here’s another list. However, there are lots more. Try to spot some when you’re reading.
Children may be tested on the infinitive form of the verb (to lose) or the simple past tense version of the word (lost). The children have already spent some time looking at these words so they aren’t unfamiliar. However, as we’ve moved back to testing every week, we’ve dropped the number of spellings down to eight.
If you’ve any questions about this list or spelling generally, please ask.
to lose lost
to fall fell
to hide hid
to drive drove
to fight fought
to win won
to pay paid
to find found

In phonics next week, we’re learning about irregular past tense verbs. Usually when we change a verb to the past tense, we just need to add ‘ed’. Irregular verbs are annoyingly irregular and don’t follow the rule!
| fall fell |
| fly flew |
| find found |
| win won |
| sell sold |
| blow blew |
| see saw |
| eat ate |
| write wrote |
| bring brought |
Don’t stop at this list. Find some other irregular verbs. There are loads of them!
