Spelling Tip – if you have already mastered this spelling that great, it is one less on the list of words you really should know. However, if you are still not sure about the start of this word and cannot work out if it is diemond, dyemond or diamond- them we are going to need memory muscle for this. Write this word over and over again until you know the shape and say every time “Daniel is asking marriage of Nancy Drew.” (Thank you, Daniel for your help)

d + i + a + mond

Use the word as many times throughout the week as you can. This can be verbally, in your written work or listen out for other people using it.
