WEEK THREE AND THE TERM IS FLYING BY!

Well done to Jake, Ben, Audrey and Sophie for winning the Grade 5 hockey competition today...a fantastic effort!

Here are our spelling words for this week:

Grade 5 words - focus on the 'air' sound:
bare care dared share scare
spare stared prepare prayer bear
wear tear there where chair
pair fair hairdresser downstairs

Extension words - focus on homophones:
heard herd
council counsel
compliment complement
stationery stationary
principle principal
there their
straight strait

HERE'S A HINT...
Do you have trouble keeping THERE and THEIR straight? Remember, start HERE to get THERE.

I hope your projects on Famous Australians are progressing well. Keep working hard to make sure they are ready to be handed in on Thursday 12 August.

Have a great week!
