We added to our Word Wall again this week! 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 that was sent home. 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 each child's work.
*You can also find a copy on our classroom website.
We learned three new sets:
father - A parent who is a man
farther - When two objects have a large amount of space between them
***********************************
berry - Tiny round fruit that grow on bushes or trees
bury - When someone places something in a hole and covers it up
***********************************
weather - A condition of the air or climate
whether - Referring to an option between two or more choices
