Y5/6

Words which end in 'ment'

equipment
environment
government
parliament
enjoyment
document
management
replacement

statement

We looked carefully to see which of the words has a root word and discussed strategies for the trickier words such as 'parliament', 'government' and 'environment' which all have a silent letter.  Don't be caught out in the spelling test on Friday!
The first four words are Y5/6 statutory spellings and the children must know how to spell these ones!
