SPICY CHALLENGE
Write a sentence for three of your “au” words – try to include any common words you know from previous homework tasks too. (Remember a capital letter, finger spaces, sensible spelling and a full stop or other punctuation to complete good sentences please.)
HOT CHALLENGE
You can order words in the same order as the alphabet, this is called Alphabetical Order. You can do it in Ascending order which means starting from the beginning of the alphabet and writing each word in the same order as the alphabet. You can do it in Descending order which means starting from the word closest to the end of the alphabet then writing each word in the order of the alphabet returning down to A.
Write the spelling and common words in Ascending alphabetical order.
NUMERACY HOMEWORK TASKS
We know a lot about Place Value now and we can use this knowledge to put numbers that don’t normally sit next to each other into an order. Ascending order means starting with small numbers then ordering them to a higher number. Descending order means starting with the highest number and writing the other numbers counting down to the smallest number. Try some of these activities out.
