This week the spelling chant to practise with your child is ‘drop the y for an i’. The adverb of these words is modified by adding either an er added or est at the end which changes the meaning. Children should learn all these words and see if they can come with some of their own.
| LO: drop the y for an i. | ||
| moodily | moodier | moodiest |
| hungrily | hungrier | hungriest |
| funnily | funnier | funniest |
| nastily | nastier | nastiest |
| crazily | crazier | craziest |
| greedily | greedier | greediest |
| angrily | angrier | angriest |
| healthily | healthier | healthiest |
There’s another spelling rule used in one of the spellings this week. Can you spot which one it is?
