Good morning,
Below are your spelling activities for the week. How did you get on last week?
Day 1
This week, we are going to look at adding the prefix auto- to words.
Let’s start by seeing if you can work out what the prefix auto- means. Look at the words below:
autograph
autobiography
automatic
autofocus
autocorrect
autopilot
autorotate

What do you think the prefix ‘auto‘ means? Can you write the dictionary definition for each word?
Day 2
The prefix auto- means ‘self’ or ‘own’.
Can you match the word to definitions within five minutes?
Match the word to the definitions week 3
Day 3

Now it’s your turn! Draw the spelling shape boxes for the two missing spelling words.

Using your words do the following:
Write the word in a sentence with a conjunction.
Write a question with the word in it.
Speed write the word 5 times.
