Home Learning
Mathletics will be set every Friday
(I have assigned a variety of tasks, each child can choose where they feel they need practice or they have enough to keep them busy during the week, If you find that all tasks are completed, you can always choose any tasks you feel that you need to revise and complete them)
Please encourage your child to continue with Times Table Rock Stars
Spellings will be also set every Friday, tested in school the following Friday
Fluency Books - Please ensure your child works daily on their fluency question. Questions for the week will be marked on the following Friday.
SAT's Style Questions -will be set every Friday, there may be one or two questions. This is to complement their learning in school and give exposure to the SAT's layout and expectations.
Reading - Please encourage your child to read every evening and sign in the contact book, we will then hand out stickers for three reading days a week and the children will collect these for a certificate in the celebrations assembly.
Week ending 18 October 2019: Spelling;
achieve, convenience, mischievous,vegetable, secretary, parliament ,
cemetery, dictionary, environment, exercise
Choose two spellings from the list.
Write them down and rescue them :
R read the word
E explore the world - can you find it in a book, around the house,
have you heard it anywhere
S spell the word
C class the word (verb, noun)
U use the word in a sentence
E explain the word in your own words
Some spelling will be repeated from the previous week if needed.
We have been working on remembering the spelling. The children have been encouraged on making up poems or stories about the spelling to help them learn the order of the letters.
Eg; bruise: Bruce Banner ( as in hulk) is super enormous (bruises are green- Hulk)
dessert; I would like two spoons of ice cream
necessary; you have one collar and two sleeves
Over the week try and come up with a spelling that is tricky to remember and make up a story to help you and the class to remember.
