Easter Holiday Homework

This week's homework...

 

   Here you will find your child’s homework for the week ahead.

  We have a suggestion for homework that can be completed across the week, with reading being a priority for every day.

  Monday – spellings

  Tuesday – maths (Year 1s Maths Seeds Year 2s Mathletics)

  Wednesday – spellings

  Thursday – maths (Year 1s Maths Seeds Year 2s Mathletics / Times Tables Rock Stars)

  Friday – Write to the Top will be set and this needs to be talked through ready for your child to write on a Monday

Text for this half term

 

During the first half of the Summer Term we are reading extracts from Matilda by Roald Dahl.

We are using this to work through our Talk for Writing program - retelling some of the events in 5 clear sentences with actions, placing these on a backwards s story map and text map and then telling the story in our writing work. Finally we will innovate this story and change key characters and places.

Reading

 

       It is recommended that reading takes place every day. Children who are using the Accelerated Reader system will continue to select books from the library at least once a week. These can be read at home and then returned to school when ready to quiz on. (They should be read at least twice)

               

        For others the following approach will continue this half term:-

 

             Books can be changed once returned to school. Reading for pleasure books are available to be chosen each day.

All children bring home a book related to their Read, Write Inc work and also have log in details for Oxford Owl to access the books being read in school.

In English, we have been reading some extracts from Matilda, in particular the pranks which she did to her dad, Mr Wormwood. Next week, we will be looking at some of the characters and how to describe them. For talk homework this week, we would like you to talk, draw pictures and write key words about yourself.

Spellings

Spellings now follow in line with each groups Read, Write Inc work. Therefore there are not weekly spelling rules - children are learning the sounds, tricky words and words through their lessons. These can be found listed in the front of the Book Bag Books which are brought home each week.

 

In addition the common exception words are also being taught for years 1 and 2. These can all be found in the back of the jotters.

 

Year 2 also work through spelling rules.
