In the Upper Juniors this week, the Learning Council have been finding out more about Wordy’s Spells!
Click on the links below to watch video clips about the suffix -ify, the homophones cereal and serial and tips on how to spell bruise.
Maybe the Learning Council will come to film your spelling strategies next week!
Here is the attachments of this Post
Files to Watch
- Suffix -ify -
- Bruise Cruise -
- Homophone Cereal Serial -
A good way to remember spellings are with an anonym which is a group of letters that stand for a ‘ mini sentence’ that tells you the meaning. For example, AISLE-
Aisles
In
Shops
Lurk
Everywhere
This one is slightly different, but it still works:
FOREIGN
Foreign
PeOple
stRongly
spEak
In
German
AcceNts
If you find it easier, you could use other words to help:
To remember FORTY
I went to FORTY sleepovers in a FORTnight
I ate FORTY bits of spaghetti with my FORk
Oops. I should have said mnemonic. A Mnemonic is a short phrase that you use to help remember something. Perhaps I should have used one!
I love being in the leaning council because I get to do videos each week.
Hope I can get through nearly every one in my class.
Do you want to do a video with me soon?
