Written Homework to be completed by Tuesday 8^th July 2025

Please learn the following words for a spelling test. This week we are learning some words ending with -ive and -al:

attractive    creative    addictive   offensive   expressive   musical   accidental   central     industrial    global

This week I would like you to write a sentence containing each word to show that you understand the meaning.  Include as many of the following as you can; these have been covered in our SPaG lessons:

• Can you use commas, full stops and capital letters correctly? 
• Can you use some direct speech in your sentences, including different words for ‘said’? 
• Can you use a relative pronoun such as that, which, who, whom and where?
• Can you use an expanded noun phrase? 
• Can you use parenthesis – brackets, commas or dashes to show additional information?
• Can you add a modal verb to show degrees of possible such as should, could, maybe, ought, must.  

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.

English Task:  This week I would like you to find out about a mountain range in the world.  Where is it?  What is it called?  What type of mountain is it?  How tall is the tallest mountain?  You can present your information as a mind map or chart.  I like to see illustrations!
