Lesson video

Hi there, and welcome to today's spelling lesson.

I'm Mr. Moss, I love spelling and I'm really looking forward to teaching you.

With you today, you need to bring your looking eyes, your listening ears, and your thinking brains, as well as that something to write with and write on, and someone or something to talk to would be great as well.

Let's get right into today's spelling lesson then.

In today's lesson, we're going to be spelling words with the suffix -ly, the outcome is I can change adjectives into adverbs by adding the suffix -ly.

Here are the key words for today's learning.

My turn, your turn and make sure I can hear you saying these back to me as they're going to be very important.

Suffix, root word, well done.

Adverb, adjective, verb.

So let's have a chat about what these words mean then.

A suffix is a letter or group of letters added to the end of a word to change its meaning.

A root word is the base word from which other words are formed often by adding prefixes or suffixes.

An adverb describes a verb.

An adjective describes a noun, tells you what it's like.

And a verb is a doing or a being word.

So today, we are going to be adding the -ly suffix to some adjectives.

Adjectives will be our root words, and by adding that -ly suffix, we will be creating adverbs.

And adverbs are words that we can use to then describe verbs that add extra description in our work.

Here are the outline and the learning cycles for today.

We're gonna be spelling words with the suffix -ly.

First of all, we're gonna generate some rules when we add that suffix -ly, which is really important in our spelling.

And then, we're gonna practise and apply the spellings, and also have a go at writing them into a sentence as well.

So let's have a look at some rules for adding the -ly suffix.

Remember that a suffix is a letter or group of letters at the end of a word, which creates another word.

How many suffixes can you remember? I'm sure you've looked at some in your learning.

Pause the video and have a think.

Great thinking team, so let's have a look at some suffixes and action, then.

Here, I've got my root word play, and I'm adding the suffix -ing at the end of the word to create a new word, playing.

Here, I've got the root word play again.

And this time I've added a different suffix, the -ed suffix to create a new word, played.

Here I've got the suffix, -ly, which is the one that we are concentrating on today.

And my root word is slow, which is an adjective.

And I have now created the word slowly, an adverb.

So we can see here that there are lots of different types of suffix, <v ->ing, -ed and -ly are just three examples.

</v> There are different rules for how the root word changes when we add the different suffixes to them.

So we're gonna generate some of those rules for when we add that -ly suffix now.

Let's have a read of some words, my turn, your turn.

Quickly, slowly, happily, easily, simply, basically, enthusiastically.

Have a look at these words for me.

What do you notice about all of them? Pause the video and have a think.

Great thinking.

So I've noticed that they all end in that -ly suffix, don't they? Which means that they are all adverbs.

And remember, adverbs describe verbs.

Adverbs can be used to describe a verb.

They can show how, when, or where something happens.

The -ly suffix often turns adjectives into adverbs.

So we take the root word, which is an adjective, we add our -ly suffix and it becomes an adverb.

Now, sometimes we can just add that -ly, but at other times that root word will change a bit.

And so we're gonna generate some rules now to show what happens when we add that -ly suffix.

The fox is quick, here is my adjective.

Quick here is an adjective describing the noun, the fox.

The fox runs quickly, this time I've added -ly to quick to create the word quickly.

It's no longer an adjective, it's not describing a noun.

Quickly is now acting as an adverb.

It's describing the verb, runs.

So the word quickly describes how the fox runs, it is an adverb.

So when we add -ly to the ends of adjectives, they become adverbs.

In this instance, all I've had to do is add -ly.

So what word classes are slow and slowly? Think about this, let's read the sentences.

The turtle is slow.

The turtle walks slowly.

Which one is an adjective, which one is an adverb? Pause the video and have a think now.

Good job, so slow here is an adjective, it's describing our noun, the turtle.

Remember, an adjective describes the noun, it tells you what it's like.

But slowly here is describing how the turtle walks.

Walks here is our verb, slowly is an adverb.

It's describing the verb, how that thing is doing something.

So look at what happens when that suffix, our suffix -ly is added to these adjectives, what do you notice? Quick becomes quickly, our adverb.

Our adjective is slow, we add -ly, it becomes slowly, an adverb.

Sad becomes sadly.

What do you notice is happening here? Pause the video and have a think.

Well done for taking the time to have a think there.

Here's another one, hopeful has become hopefully.

Hmm, I think I can see here that in all of these instances, I'm just adding my suffix -ly to create my adverbs.

The root word here is not changing at all, I'm just having to add that suffix.

What will happen to the spelling of these words then, when we add our suffix -ly, to make adverbs? Bright, clear, soft, I'd like you to have a think about how the words brightly, clearly and softly as adverbs would be spelled.

Pause the video, have a think.

Great, so in each instance we're just gonna add -ly here to these root words, so the spelling of the root word here helps us to know how to spell the adverb.

And in this instance, our rule is we just add -ly.

Look at what happens if the suffix -ly is added to these adjectives, what do you notice? So happy becomes happily.

Hmm, something different is happening here.

I'm not just adding -ly, I'm removing a letter and adding another letter.

Easy becomes easily, and angry becomes angrily.

And here we have the root word, lazy, and I want to make the word lazily.

Again, you can see here that I'm gonna chop off that -y and add -ily.

So have a look here for me, if the root word has more than one syllable and it ends in a consonant and a 'y,' then that 'y' is removed before the suffix -ily is added.

So if I look here at happy, I have two syllables there, easy, two syllables, angry, two syllables, lazy, two syllables and I have a consonant there before my y in each of them, so I remove the 'y' and add -ily to turn them into adverbs.

Otherwise, happy would be happyly, like that.

We want it to be happily, so it's that -ily.

So what will the spelling of these words be when we add that -ly suffix to it? Here I have the root word, greedy.

My turn, your turn, heavy.

My turn, your turn, busy.

So I have some adjectives here and I want to turn them into adverbs.

How will I spell greedily, heavy, busy? Think about the rule we just looked at.

Pause the video and try and spell those words.

Good job team, let's see how you've done, then.

Greedy becomes greedily, I remove the y and add -ily.

Heavy becomes heavily.

I remove the y and add -ily and busy, you guessed it, I remove the Y and add -ily.

The spelling of the root word here in these instances helped me to know how I would turn them into an adverb by adding that -ly suffix.

So remove the 'y' and add -ily, brilliant.

Now let's have a look at another rule.

Let's see what happens when we add our -ly suffix to these adjectives.

Gentle becomes gently, simple becomes simply, noble becomes nobly and if you are noble, it means you have high moral principles, so you act well and that becomes nobly.

Have a look at these words here, these root words, how have they changed? Pause the video and have a think.

Great, well yeah, we can really clearly see here that we've removed the 'e' from each of these root words and we've added our -ly to turn them into adverbs.

So if we look carefully, remove the 'e' and then add -ly.

These root words all end in that 'e,' they've changed, we've removed that 'e' and then we've added that stuff -ly to turn them into adverbs.

Otherwise, gentle would be gentlely, like that with that strange 'e' there, it wouldn't look right, would it? Gentlely, we want it to be gently.

So how will these words change that end in that 'le?' When we add our -ly suffix here, we have incredible, humble, sensible.

How am I going to spell the words incredibly, humbly, sensibly? Remember our rule here, they all end in that 'le.

' Pause the video and have a go at spelling them now.

Good job team.

So incredible becomes incredibly, I remove the 'e.

' Humble becomes humbly, I remove the 'e,' and sensible becomes sensibly, I remove that 'e' and add my -ly in each instance to make adverbs.

So the spelling of our root word here, helps us to know how to spell the adverb when we add that -ly.

When it ends in that 'e,' remove the 'e' and add -ly.

Remove the 'le' then add -ly so now look at what happens when the suffix -ly is added to these adjectives.

This is our final rule we're going to look at now.

Basic becomes basically, hmm, definitely added some letters here, haven't I, before my -ly? Automatic, automatic becomes automatically.

And what do you notice here, then, what's happening? What's changed for our root words? What have we added before adding our -ly? Pause the video and have a think.

Absolutely, we can see here that onto the end of that root word, we've added an -ally to turn them into adverbs.

So the root word, if it ends in that 'ic' spelling there, 'ic,' basic, automatic, then we add -ally rather than just an -ly.

If the root word ends in 'ic,' we add -ally, basically, automatically.

Now, we have to be careful there 'cause we don't necessarily say basic-ally or automatic-ally, we say basically, automatically.

So it does just sound like the -ly, so be careful.

So have a look at these words ending in 'ic.

' How are they going to change when we add our -ly suffix? Frantic, dramatic.

Oh, how are those words going to change? How are you going to spell frantically, dramatically? Pause the video.

Okay, so because they end in 'ic,' we know we're going to add -ally and the same here, dramatically.

It might not sound like dramatic-ally, might sound like dramatically, just with that -ly, but it's -ally.

So the spelling of the root word remember, helps us to spell the new word.

If our root word ends in that 'ic,' we add -ally.

You cannot always hear that -al in it remember, we don't necessarily say frantic-ally, right? We say frantically, so we might not hear it, but it is there, remember it's there.

We add -ally if our root word ends in 'ic.

' So there are some exceptions to the rules that we just looked at though, the word publicly, which does end in an 'ic,' that root word public, comes from that word public, we don't add -ally, we just add an -ly in that one instance.

So we don't need to add -ally, that's an exception.

It doesn't follow the regular pattern that we see in our language.

So we've generated four rules, wow, four.

Let's see if we can go through them, then.

First one is just adding -ly, it's very common.

The other one is removing the 'le' and adding -ly.

We also remove the 'y' and add -ily, and we also add -ally.

So most root words like nice and calm, we just add our -ly.

Other words like simple and humble, we must remove the 'le' and then add -ly and they become simply and humbly.

Some words have to remove the 'y' at the end and we add -ily, and they became funnily heavily.

And remember, if that root well ends in 'ic,' then we must add -ally.

Take a moment to have a look at our rules really quickly.

Maybe take a mental snapshot, brilliant.

So have a look, we've got our four rules, A, B, C, and D.

Each child is a different rule.

One is just add -ly, one is remove the 'y' and add -ily One is remove the 'le' and add -ly, and one is add -ally if it ends in an 'ic.

' I'm gonna show you some words.

I want you to match them to the correct rule.

The first word is basic, how am I going to spell basically, which rule is it going to follow? Pause the video and make your selection now.

Good job, so basic ends in 'ic.

' I know then that that's going to mean, I need to add -ally and I don't say basic-ally I say basically, but it's an -ally spelling so the correct one was D The next word, are you ready? Happy, pause the video, select the correct rule now, off you go.

Good job, so happy ending in a 'y,' I want to make the word happily.

Absolutely, it's gonna be rule B, I'm gonna remove the 'y' and add -ily.

Next word, simple, which one does this follow? Pause the video and select the correct rule now Remember to look at that root word.

Good job, so simple ends in an 'le,' so we're going to want to write the word simply I need to remove the 'le' and add -ly.

so C was the correct rule there.

And the final one, careful, the word careful already ending in an 'l,' pause the video, which rule is that going to follow, then? Off you go.

Excellent, so think about this one, careful, I want to make the word carefully.

I'm just going to add -ly 'cause it already ends in that consonant 'l,' doesn't it? Brilliant, so for our task now, what I'd like you to do for me is I'd like to put the root words into the correct columns and show what will happen when we add our -ly suffix to turn them into adverbs.

Our root words are clear, automatic, simple, angry, loud, gentle, greedy, and basic.

So I want us to turn these adjectives into adverbs by adding our -ly.

But remember, they're each going to follow a particular rule, aren't they? Pause the video, put them in the correct columns, turn them into adverbs now, off you go.

Great work team, let's see how you've done, then.

So let's see how you've done, then.

Hopefully, you've got a table that looks a bit like this Just adding -ly, we had clear and loud.

So we just added -ly to those.

Remember, that's our most common rule Words ending in 'le,' we remove the 'le,' simple and gentle became simply and gently, and we added our -ly.

Angry and greedy, both ended in a 'y,' so we removed the 'y' and added -ily And automatic and basic both ended in 'ic,' so we added -ally.

Good job applying those rules.

Pause the video and check and see how you did, make any corrections.

Onto our final learning cycle, then.

We're going to practise and apply our spellings, and we're going to have a go writing a sentence.

Let's read a word, my turn, your turn.

Build, build, I would like to build a sandcastle, build.

What do you notice about the spelling? What might be tricky about the spelling compared to how it sounds? Pause the video and have a think.

Great, well, I've noticed it has a strange 'u' here.

The 'u' sort of acts like a silent letter because I don't say bu-ild, do I? I don't hear it that 'u' and that 'i' are kind of working together to make that one sound that ill sound, build.

So be careful and watch out for that.

This is a curriculum word which appears very commonly and often in our reading and writing, so it's important we now to spell it, B-U-I-L-D.

Why don't you take a snapshot of it now, build, B-U-I-L-D, don't forget that silent 'u.

' With that in mind, how do I spell the word build? Point to the correct spelling now, you should know.

Absolutely it is B, it has that silent 'u' that 'u' and that 'i' working together to make that Ill sound, be careful with that one.

C definitely is phonetically plausible, isn't it? But we know it has that naughty 'u' in it.

So here are the rules that we have looked at today, and now we're gonna practise putting these into practise.

So here we can see some words, we just add -ly and this is what we do with most root words.

Sometimes we have to remove 'le' and add -ly.

That's when our root word ends in 'le.

' When our root word ends in two syllables and a 'y', words it's like funny and heavy, there we need to remove the 'y' and add -ily.

And if our root word ends in 'ic,' then we add -ally.

Although you might not hear the 'a' part of it when you say it, I didn't say basic-ally, I say basically.

Take a snapshot of these rules really quickly, brilliant.

So choose the correct spelling in each sentence.

I'm gonna read the sentences to you first.

She tied her laces easily.

Please decorate the cake simply.

They frantically ran away from the rat.

Pause the video, select the correct spelling, remember your rules, off you go.

Okay, then let's see how you've done.

I'm sure you've done really well.

She tied her laces easily, now think about this one.

My root word is easy that ends in a 'y,' doesn't it? Easy also has two syllables so I need to remove the 'y' and add -ily, easily.

Please decorate the cake simply.

Now, my root word here is simple ending in 'le.

' Oh yeah, of course, get rid of the 'le' and add -ly.

This is my correct spelling.

And the final one, frantically, frantic ends in 'ic,' so what do I need to do? I don't hear it, but I know I need to add -ally.

They frantically ran away from the rat, ah! Okay, pause the video and see how you did.

So what we're gonna do now for a little check is I want you to have a go at adding the -ly suffix to these words to create adverbs.

The words we have are clear, noisy, gentle, automatic.

Remember your rules, I'd like you to pause the video now and have a go at spelling these words and turning them into adverbs using that -ly suffix.

Off you go, I want you to write the words clearly, noisy, gently, automatically, off you go.

Really great application of our spelling rules there.

Let's see how you've all done, then.

So clear, I want to make clearly, well, it's just ending in that 'r,' isn't it? I think I'm just going to add -ly.

It's gonna be that most common rule that we use where we just add -ly.

So my correct spelling here is clearly, I don't need to change the spelling of the root word, I don't need to add an 'e' there anywhere, just clearly.

Noisy, let's think about this one.

Noisily, hmm, now noisy, two syllables ending in a 'y.

' I need to get rid of the 'y' and add -ily there.

Be careful, I know it sounds like a z in there as well, but it's noisy just with an 's.

' Gently, now think about this one, 'le,' what do we do? Get rid of the 'le' and add our -ly, gently.

And automatically be careful with this one.

What does it end in, 'ic' okay, it might sound like the first one, that might make phonetic sense, but we know if it ends in 'ic,' we add -ally.

Automatic-ally, automatic-ally spells automatically.

We don't pronounce it automatic-ally, obviously, we say automatically that's why it's a bit of a tricky one so watch out.

Pause the video, check and see how you did.

So we are going to have a go at writing a sentence now containing some of our focus spellings.

When we write the whole sentence, we need to do several things at once.

We have to remember the whole sentence, sound out each word, we need to also think about the spelling rules we've been looking at, those four rules we generated for adding our -ly suffix.

We need to look out for common exception curriculum words.

Think about that curriculum where build, we've looked at, and also we need to remember sentence punctuation, capital letters, and full stops.

So I'd like you to listen to me say the sentence first of all, use your great hearing for me.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

So let's use some strategies to help us remember this sentence.

The first one, marching it out.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

Pause the video and march that out for me.

Great, the next one, whispering it.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

Pause the video and whisper to yourself, or someone around you now, off you go.

Brilliant, and finally shouting it out.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

Pause the video and shout it out now, make sure I can hear you, off you go.

So loud, well done, could really hear you saying the sentence there.

So we're now gonna have a chance to write the sentence and I want you to remember to sound out each word.

Think about those common exception curriculum words.

And don't forget sentence punctuation, capital letters, full stops.

So I'm gonna say the sentence one more time.

We plan to build a shed quickly and carefully this weekend.

Pause the video and have a go writing that sentence for me now, off you go.

Great work everybody, some beautiful cursive handwriting there , some really good application of how we add that -ly suffix.

And also, I could see people being really careful with our curriculum word that was there as well.

So make any corrections as we go along.

We, we need to have a capital letter, plan to build, okay, build, remember that silent 'u' that's in there.

It's that curriculum word, B-U-I-L-D spells build.

The shed quickly and carefully.

Oh, so quickly, quick there is my root word, and I'm turning into an adverb, so I just add -ly.

And careful again, careful with this one, we just have to add there our -ly too.

This weekend, full stop of course, at the end of our sentence.

We plan to build the shed quickly and carefully this weekend, make sure you've got your punctuation there.

How did you do, what did you learn? Did you make any mistakes? What successes did you have? Do you need to make any corrections? Share your learning and make any corrections now, pause the video.

Great spelling today, everyone.

Today, we've been looking at that suffix -ly.

Remember, a suffix is a letter, or group of letters at the end of a word, which creates another word.

The suffix.

-ly can be used to create adverbs.

When using the -ly suffix, there are four rules.

Just add -ly, remove the 'le' and add -ly.

Remove the 'y' and add -ily.

And if the word ends in 'ic,' that root word, we add -ally.

Remember, adverbs are words that describe verbs.

Great spelling, keep it up, keep up the practise, and I'll see you again soon.
