Happy New Year and a big welcome back to the beginning of a new school term!
Homework this week is as follows:
Literacy
Today the children were all given a copy of their spelling words.
Authors and Illustrators:
- radio
- rough
- touch
- enough
- pounce
- frown
- trounce
- trousers
- amount
- scrounge
Publishers:
- dive
- time
- wise
- line
- bike
- like
- shine
- bride
- stripe
- crime
Please copy out each of the words three times into your homework jotter.
Following this, please write 4 sentences using your words. As ever, extra dojo points are up for grabs if you manage to use 2 or more words in the same sentence (though please make sure the sentence still makes sense!). Remember to underline the spelling word that you used.
Maths
Continuing on with our work on addition and subtraction, the children were given a worksheet entitled ‘Calculations Cards’. The game needs two or more players, and instructions are included on the sheet.
There is no need to bring the cards back into school, just get the person who you were playing with to sign your maths jotter to let me know that you played.
As always, Heinemann Active and Sumdog are available to play.
Topic
This week, we began our new topic focussing on learning about Japan and Extreme Earth.
Please write down 4 facts about Japan. These can be facts that you have learned in class, or you could do a little research at home to see if you can find an interesting piece of information that we have not discussed yet. You will be able to share your facts with your classmates next week.
