 Homework 

The children have been sent home with 2 booklets to work on over the holidays. Please do not worry if some areas have not been covered, we will be covering these topics in the weeks to follow after half term. We encourage the children to have a go at the questions. Please feel free to support your child with any areas that they are unsure of.

3. Spellings  

Children will be tested on their spellings every Friday.

It would be good practice for your child to include each word in a different sentence, to demonstrate that they understand how to use the word in context. Remember to underline the word that that has been included in the sentence.

Your weekly spellings are listed below. Spellings will be tested every Friday. 

Group A Group B

Please pracitise your multiplications (2 times tables through to 12 timestable). You will need to know these multiplications going forward, backwards and out of order.  Please use times tables rock stars to practise. 

 

Reading

 

Notes to Know This Week:

The children will bring home a reading book shortly based on their most recent Accelerated Reading assessment taken this week. In the meantime, please continue to encourage your child to read their current book everyday. Thank you for your paitence in this matter. 

The AR quiz will be taken weekly and only then can your child change their book. Please ensure that your child is reading daily and you have listened to them read.

Each evening please read aloud to a member of your family.  Remember to talk about the book.

What might happen next?

How do you think the character is feeling? Why do you think that?

What happened in the story?

Can you find a word that means the same as ............?

What is the definition of .........?  If you don't know, can you find it in the dictionary?

Did you enjoy the story? Why?

Have you read a different story that has similar themes in to this story?

Remember to refer back to the text when answering the questions.
