Homework – Grinshill Class

Sorry this did not go live yesterday, there were some technical issues.

This week we have had a visit from the ‘Happy Lady’ who has asked that we practice three things:

  1. Play the glad game (Your child will explain the rules)
  2. If you feel happy or sad or any other emotion you need to practice taking 5 long, deep breaths.
  3.  Discuss where we feel the emotion. For example if we get angry do we feel it in our feet, hands, tummy etc.

Reading

Final chapter – Fiction Express

New book in class on Monday

Times table practice

Test on Tuesday on x2, x5, x10, x3 and x4.

Homework finished by Monday 5th October 2020

Homework – Wednesday 23rd September 2020

Good Afternoon,

Can I please remind all parents that homework must be completed by 9am on the following Monday.

I would like all children to go on the following website and practise getting faster at the following tables; x2, x5, x10 then x3, x4, x6, x8.

https://www.timestables.co.uk/ 

They can try the games and the speed tests.

Also, can they read chapter 3 of Horis Humdrum (Please DO NOT COMPLETE THE TEST FOR YOUR CHILD), you may support only. It causes confusion when they don’t understand the follow-on tasks in class if, they have not read the chapter by themselves.

Thank you for supporting us with this 🙂

Horis Humdrum and Splotch

Mrs Quigley will read chapter 4 in class on Monday morning with comprehension activities and they will revisit the questions from previous chapter, so it is important they have read it themselves and understood it.

Thank you

Mrs Roberts

Homework – Wednesday 16th September 2020

Fiction Express

Please read CHAPTER 1 ONLY

We will read chapter 2 in class on Monday, so all children need to have completed reading by Monday morning.

Horis Humdrum and Splotch

Chapter 1 only and answer the 10 questions

  • I will be able to see when you have read the chapter and completed the questions.

Handwriting

Your child will have a laminated sheet to practise handwriting. Some children will have a whiteboard pen too. This will be yours to keep. 10 minutes practice 4 to 5 times a week will have a huge impact.

Any queries please see me.
