Task

Your spellings are different to the ones in the video but they are still homophones. 

Your task it to write a sentence for each word, from your spelling list, to show how it is different to the other spelling.

Mild

Write 4 sentences.  That means 2 pairs of homophones from this week’s spellings.

Spicy

Complete a sentence for each spelling.

Hot

Write 1 sentence that uses both versions of the homophone but still makes perfect sense.  Here is an example using the homophone: knight/night

One dark, mysterious night, a knight in shining armour came hurtling down the track.

Maths

Lesson Objective

Can I multiply 3-digits by 2-digits?

Think about:

When do we need to make an exchange?  What happens if there is an exchange in the last step of the calculation?
