Good afternoon everyone! I hope you have all had a fabulous October break so far. The weather has been relatively kind to those of us who stayed at home so I hope you have been out and about enjoying the dry days. Here is\u00a0a rundown of your homework for this week. Please read the reminders as there are quite a few this week.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Spelling<\/strong>: Unit 15 or 22 should be completed, neatly, in your spelling jotter. Each word should be written out\u00a03\u00a0<\/strong>times. A creative spelling activity should be completed using ALL\u00a0<\/strong>of your words. This task should be returned to school by\u00a0Friday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Please remember to practice your words throughout the week,\u00a0NOT\u00a0<\/strong>just when you are completing the task.<\/p>\n

Book Detectives<\/strong>: Your Book Detectives homework will be issued on\u00a0Thursday<\/strong>. It should be\u00a0completed for\u00a0Thursday 3rd November<\/strong>. Please remember that if you do not complete the task you will be unable to participate in the class lesson on this day.<\/p>\n

Details of the task will be issued on Thursday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Personal Reading Challenge<\/strong>: This term we will be completing a\u00a0challenge to help increase the amount of reading you do each week. The challenge will be ongoing for the whole term.\u00a0I will go over the finer details of the challenge with you in class on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Maths<\/strong>:\u00a0Our maths homework will take a different format this term. \u00a0Most weeks you will have worded problems to complete. These problems will be posted on our class blog. I have included links below for you to use. Please click on the relevant group. If you are unable to access the blog, please ask for a paper copy of the questions.<\/p>\n

Group 1<\/a><\/p>\n

Group 2<\/a><\/p>\n

Your answers should be completed, neatly, in your maths homework jotter. I will let you know on Monday (24th) which group you are in so that you know which questions to answer. Please cover your jotter for\u00a0Friday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I know many of you enjoy accessing the games on Mangahigh. Please continue to do so, if you wish, as additional practice is always worth doing.<\/p>\n

Art<\/strong>: As part of our Brazil topic we will be looking at a Brazilian artist: Beatriz Milhazes. Next week in class we will be recreating some of her paintings. For homework this week I would like you to access the link below and familiarise yourself with her work. Some of the vocabulary used is a little tricky but please remember if you are unsure of what a word means, please use a dictionary (or ask) to check the definition.<\/p>\n

You should then write a short paragraph (no more than 50 words) about Beatriz and her work. This should be in your own words as much as possible – DO NOT just copy directly from the text. Let me know your personal thoughts on her paintings. Think about the following questions when writing your paragraph.<\/p>\n
