My brother is training to be a geography teacher .

The monkey looked ridiculous wearing a hat.
Example of the spelling test:
How it is taught in school Each year delivers one lesson a week
dedicated to SPaG. What is taught in this lesson is then
followed up on in literacy lessons. Each child is also set homework on the topic
covered in class. Spelling tasks and spelling lists are given
each week to learn and complete
Spelling strategies. Check your child’s homework –
understanding of the word. When reading, look and point out grammar
and discuss how it has been used. Use appropriate vocabulary with your
children – eg nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, pronouns, prepositions, phrases, clauses, connectives, inverted commas……
