This week I would like you to write a sentence containing each word to show that you understand the meaning.  If you do not know the meaning, please look up the word in the dictionary.  Can you use commas, full stops and capital letters correctly?  Can you use an exclamation mark or question mark?  Can you add a model verb such as might, should, could, must or will?  Can you use an adverb (a descriptive word to describe a verb – a doing/action word?)  Please refer to the ‘Monarchy’ Sheet that gives different strategies for how to learn spellings.  This has been stuck in the front of your child’s Homework Book.
