We added to our Word Wall again today! Our Word Wall consists of homophones that are commonly misspelled. A homophone is a word that sounds like another word, but has a different meaning and is spelled differently.
I updated a paper copy and sent it home in folders this afternoon. Keep it where your child does homework for easy reference. Once a homophone is on the Word Wall, I expect it to be spelled correctly in children's work.
We learned two new sets today:
son - a male child
sun - the star in the universe that provides us with daylight and warmth
***********************************
some - a collection of something
sum - an answer to an addition problem; an amount of money
