P4 Homework 8/3/16

The children are working very hard in class this week on assessments. Therefore, there will be no formal reading or spelling homework.

Reading will still be heard in class but we won’t send any reading home as the lessons we would normally use to set the homework are used for the assessment time.

Maths and Numeracy

There will however be some maths and numeracy homework distributed. Each child should have 4 worksheets to complete.

These cover multiplication and division by 10 and division in fractions. This is work that the children have recently covered in class and should be revision. However if you need any tips on how to help using the methods that we did in class, please let me know. Also, if anyone needs to borrow any cubes etc, they are welcome to do so.

Sumdog: as normal.

Learnits: There is no need to cover Learn its this week if you are short on time, maths homework can be tricky for all.
