Homework w/b 5/11/18

Good afternoon!

Here is our homework for the week ahead:

Reading

The children have been given out brand new reading books this week. They are due back on Friday. We have been enjoying the use of hop, skip and jump to help us with our reading. Ask your child to show you this.

Maths

Maths homework this week is a mix of ordering numbers and symmetry. This is due on Thursday.

Spelling

Our sound this wee is ‘ss/zz’. The spelling words we chose were:

Red Group: mess, kiss, buzz and fizz.

Blue Group: dress, press, fizzy and dizzy.

Our common words this week are:

when, your, can and said.

As always, please ask if you have any queries either through the homework diary or at the end of the day.

Friday 9th November is a fundraiser day for the cinebus which involves giving a donation to dress up like a movie character.

P2 were issued with a castle project for homework last week. The details are as follows, this is also in children’s bookbags:

Home Castle Challenge

In class we are learning all about Scottish Castles in the past. We would like you to create a Castle at home. It should have a moving part, e.g. a drawbridge or a flag pole. You can use any material you wish. We would like to see the following features in your castle:

  • Moat
  • Drawbridge
  • Battlements
  • Portcullis
  • Arrow Slits
  • Towers.

Your castle should be brought into class to show on Tuesday 4th December. We look forward to seeing what you have created. Have fun!
