This is the word bank of the words we have left.

Person

Turkey

Ear

Appear

Burnt

Career

Circulate

Deserve

Questions:

1-2. Fins words with double consonants.

3. When you talk (blank), you are being open and frank.

4. When you keep your (blank) to the ground, you are trying to stay informed about something.

Thanks guys. Please help. Lol I know this dumb but no one in this house can figure it out.

Best answer will be chosen.

Thanks in advance :)

Update:

    Double consonants are two consonants in a row. So look at "earrings". Has 2 r's in a row. See if there are any others like "appear". With 2 p's in a row. Not vowels - so career or cheer - with 2 e's would not be correct.

    I don't see a word in the list to fit the blank in #3. So maybe one of the other questions you've already answered is wrong. Look for something like "honestly" in one of your other answers.

    #4. Would be "ear".

    I am confused are we using the words above that you listed or do you need words given to you to fill in blanks?

    3. bluntly

    4 ear

    I am still working on 1 and will edit shortly. (hopefully)

    ok 1 from your list is either appear or earring

    #3 does not make sense with any of the words listed....

    Best of luck that is a hard lesson for such a young grade
