Class I'm so sorry, in my haste to be clever and use the technology to superimpose the answers on the original square, I messed up! blush
I had three different tabs open at the same time!
I am a woman, I can multitask, but I am also old! grin

So they're called magic squares! These are the ones I always leave in the weekend paper, in the days when I used to buy one. I've copied out and will have a go tonight.

Been busy all day and finally finished off my craft homework nitting loopee stitch which nearly drove me loopee.

Callistemon Thu 11-Jun-20 14:31:21

Charleygirl I have just realised that if I put 20 spellings on here for them all to learn they only have to cut and paste and hey presto! They get 20/20 correct answers.

That is if I spell them correctly in the first place which, with fat finger syndrome, may be unlikely.

? ?

Charleygirl5 Thu 11-Jun-20 14:25:41

Callistemon I know from experience that learning 20 spellings is beyond this lot. They have brains but it is well hidden under a bushel. Good luck. They are better at reciting the times table.

Callistemon Thu 11-Jun-20 14:19:21

yydrasil just do the puzzles.

I am going to give them all 20 spellings to learn each day.

Charleygirl5 Thu 11-Jun-20 14:16:09

You girls may have your own language- please do not forget I am also Scottish so I understand every word that Miss says so we could have our own language!

Pantglas2 Thu 11-Jun-20 13:35:44
