Homework 17/05/16

Numeracy

Please continue with your learnits at home.

This term we will soon be focusing on the 9x table, if you could practise this new table as well as the 4x table that would be much appreciated. Remember that the children should know the answers as fast as the learn-its.

If there are any children who need their learn-its updated please let me know. Some of the children have now begun to do subtraction and multiplication learn-its in class. If your child feels they are ready for this, please let me know.

This will be our last week of non-fiction reading books. Children will receive their books today or tomorrow and it will have a worksheet to go with it. If they could keep this with their book and we will go over it next Tue or Wed.

All groups have spelling words and chapters of their group reading book to read.

Also draw a still life object that you found at home using tone and line, bring the object in (could be flowers, vase, cup, fruit) for Thursday.

We hope you had a lovely long weekend!

Homework this week:

Reading- Children should have a letter in their bag about our non-fiction focus for the next three weeks. I will not set reading pages but please read the whole book over the week and complete the worksheet for next Monday. If anybody does not have the letter find it attached. ( due Monday)

non fiction reading block

Maths- Change worksheet (due Friday)

As an extra you can ask your child to buy some items you have around the house. For example, these beans are 35p and you have £1, how much change will you get? If you have some change for them to work with, even better!

Spelling- Nothing this week.

Please ask your child about the secret friend mission. You could think of some things together they could do for their secret friend.

As P6 have their class assembly next Thursday (12th)  afternoon, their main homework this week and next will be to prepare for it. This will involve learning lines and practising their plays.

All students still have spelling words and should read the next two or three chapters in their group reading books, depending on what we agree in class for each group.

You should also be practising all times tables.
