Writing
We are having a break from writing our narratives today so that we can put the time aside to take part in a live Q&A with Michael Morpurgo on Youtube. Below is a letter to parents about the event.
Make sure that you click on the link below a few minutes before 1:30pm to check it is working. We hope this event will be informative and give you an insight into the author who wrote 'The Wreck of Zanzibar'.
*If you are behind with your writing of the narrative - I'd advise that you do some writing today too.*

I've noticed a few incorrectly spelt homophones in your writing recently so today's task is a refresher on some common homophones (same sound, different spelling.)
Below are some words, I would like you to write a short sentence for each one. Before you do, you need to check that you know which meaning goes with which homophone. an online dictionary could help if you're stuck.
I am missing your lovely personalities a lot so if you want to do some weird/funny sentences that you think will make me smile, that would be great. If your brain is fried and you are counting down the days till half term, I will accept boring sentences just this once.
1. Our
2. Are
3. Where
4. we're
5. to
6. too
7. their
8. there
9. stare
10. stair
