Go online to http://www.tutpup.com/ and complete spelling races with other people around the world. Our blog http://reremoanaroom62012.blogspot.co.nz/ has instructions on what to do. If you find you can’t do it at home you will get time in class.
Keep track of your progress and learn the words you get incorrect. Make a comment in the comment section of the Spelling blogpost and let me know how you are going. Don’t forget to put your name on your comment. You may need someone at home to help you.

Spend this week practising your part in the play. Ask someone at home to be all the other parts. Try to learn your lines off by heart and take on the role of that character.
Book Week
Start creating your costume for the book character that you will come dressed as next Friday. It is helpful if you have the book at home to help you. We have been doing character descriptions in class, so this will help a lot.
Draw what your character will look like. What do they wear? Do they have any unusual features?

Read a story from home and choose one of the characters in the story, perhaps the man character and complete a character description, just like we did together for Aunt Sponge from James and the Giant Peach. Worksheet is printed for you to complete your work on.

Week 6 (Tuesday 21 August - Monday 27 August)
Literacy
Please complete the contractions worksheet. This week we have been working on contractions in class.
A contraction is a word made of two words that are put together and then made shorter.
For example: can + not = can't and are + not = aren't
The ' (apostrophe) takes the place of letters that are taken out of the word. In the contraction can't, the ' takes the place of the letters n and o. See: can not = can't
This book is so good I can't stop reading it!
This book isn't contracted - it's expanded!

Creature examples: Spider, elephant, ant, caterpillar, bear etc
This is just a plan. You will need to bring in the fruit and vegetables next week and it will be completed in class the Thursday before the gala.
Miniature Garden
