Spelling
Year 4 Spelling
Autumn 2
This half term, we have continued our work on suffixes, focussing on:
- the -ness, -ment, -ful and -less suffixes.
- the -ly suffix.
- the /shun/ sound and the different ways it can be spelt, using the graphemes: /tion/ /sion/ /ssion/ and /cian/.
Autumn 1
We have explored the following sounds:
- the /er/ sound and and the different ways it can be spelt, using the graphemes: /ir/ /ur/ /ear/ and /or/. You can find more opportunities to practise finding words containing these graphemes, here and here.
- the /air/ sound and the different ways it can be spelt, using the graphemes: /ere/ /eir/ /are/ /ar/ /aire/. You can find more opportunities to practise finding the words containing these graphemes, here.
- the -ed and -ing suffixes and the rules for adding them to a root word. A game that can be used at home to practise this can be found here.
- the -er and -est suffixes and the rules for adding them to a root word. An activity that can be used at home to practise this can be found here.
Alongside these spelling words, the children will also be required to learn the statutory spelling words for Year 3 and 4 pupils. We will be looking at these throughout the year.
