These are the spelling patterns that we are learning in Class 4 this week:
Year 3 Seals
Adverbs created by adding the suffix –ly to adjectives where the root word is not changed e.g. kindly, quickly, safely, rudely, sweetly, strongly, bravely, secretly, finally, usually.
Year 4 Surfers
Words with a /shuhn/ sound spelt with ‘ssion’ (if the root word ends in ‘ss’ or ‘mit’) e.g. expression, discussion, confession, permission, admission, transmission, possession, profession, depression, impression.
Year 4 Waves
Words with the ‘z’ sound spelt ‘zz’ e.g. jazz, jazzy, buzz, buzzed, dizzy, fizz, fizzy, fizzed, fizzing, fuzzy.
