Oak Class

A caring village school with a family feel where relationships are at the heart of all we do. Our unique community is connected under the protection of the tree of life, where all are enabled to grow and flourish in their own surprising ways’

We're a very happy little class that enjoy learning and exploring and asking lots of questions.

We love sharing our experiences, our learning and growing together.

Spelling

Spelling Test: Friday 2nd May

Please use the grid below to make word sums with your child. They have been introduced to these in the classroom and they have learnt the associated rules, eg, con+fuse+ing=confusing (drop the ‘e’ and ‘ing’). I will be giving them a random selection of 10 words that can be made up from these prefixes, suffixes and root words for the spelling tests on Friday.
