Monday

•
10
minutes DEAR time (Drop Everything and Read) – any book of your choice
•
Use
rainbow writing to practice these words on a blank page or in a copybook.
Rainbow writing is a fun way to use repetition to
help practice spelling words. It's a simple process where you use multiple
colours of pencil, marker or crayon to create a fun rainbow effect when you write. See an example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAVniLUkI4c
•
Parents/
Guardians: choose one of the 'ow' words and put it into a simple sentence.
Call out (dictate) this sentence and have your child write the sentence down
as accurately as possible. Look over the sentence together and point out 1
thing they did really well and 1 thing they could improve on next time e.g. spelling,
using capital letters, full stops, spacing etc.
