Good afternoon,

Class 4 will be bringing home a new piece of homework today, based on our work in class on rounding numbers, and using rounding to estimate calculations.

The homework is set according to the end of year expectations for your child’s year group.

Please bring completed homework back in on Monday 14th November, so that it can be marked and new homework set to go home on Wednesday.

Thank you,

Miss Carr

In English we have been practising the correct use of commas in sentences.  We have also been looking at main clauses and subordinate clauses.

We are sending out homework today that is based on the end of year expectations for your child’s year group.

Please ensure children complete their homework by Monday so that it can be marked and new homework stuck in before it is due to be sent out again next Wednesday.

Thank you.

This term, the children have been looking at biographies and autobiographies. We have read extracts from Boy and Going Solo by Roald Dahl, and Singing for Mrs Pettigrew by Michael Morpurgo.

Over the holidays, we would like children to write a biography on a person of their choice. It can be a family member, a pop star, an actor or a sports personality.

Please can homework be completed in children’s homework books and be returned to school by the first day back after the holidays.

Thank you for your support.

Today we have sent home part of a text that we have been reading online called Cosmo Mars. Please could the children finish reading Chapter 3 and then all of Chapter 4, A Distressing Letter, before Monday next week.

Thank you

In Maths we have been revising and practising methods for addition and subtraction. This week we have looked at different methods for subtraction, including counting up on a number line and using the more formal column methods. We have also talked about which methods we are more confident with and which methods are more efficient for different types of questions.

Please ensure children complete their homework by Monday so that it can be marked and new homework stuck in before it is due to be sent out again next Wednesday.

Dear Parents/Carers,

In English we have been looking at different types of clauses within sentences, including relative and embedded clauses.

We expect that all children complete some homework each week. Children can complete the activity independently or with your support and choose which questions they would like to do.

If any children feel that they would like an extra challenge, they should speak to an adult in Class 4, and we will happily send additional homework out.

Please ensure homework is returned by Monday so that it can be marked and new homework stuck in before it is due to be sent out again.

We thank you for your support with this.

Kind regards,

Mrs Chadwick and Mrs Foster

Dear Parents/Carers,

Over the past few weeks we have been looking at classic fiction in English. We have read extracts from The Jungle Book and some of the Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling.

We are sending out homework tonight on the subject of classic fiction that is set according to children’s end of year expectations. We expect that all children complete some homework each week. Children can read the text independently or with your support and then choose which questions they would like to do.

If any children feel that they would like an extra challenge, they should speak to an adult in Class 4, and we will happily send additional homework out.

Homework this year will be sent home in a homework book on a Wednesday and should be returned to school by the following Monday. This is so that it can be marked and new homework stuck in before it is due to be sent out again.

We thank you for your support with this.

Kind regards,

Mrs Chadwick and Mrs Foster
