This week’s homework is practice makes perfect and is due on Thursday 05 July.
I can write a set of instructions.
This week is sports week and we are looking at all of the ways we can be healthy. One of those ways is moving. Children are recommended to do 60 minutes of exercise a day – 30 minutes in school and 30 minutes at home.
Your homework is to write a set of instructions for a sport/game of your choice. You can choose any sport or game as long as it’s active. Such as, football, cricket, netball, tig, stuck in the mud or sharks and fishes.
Don’t forget, instructions need a title, a ‘what you need’ section and a ‘what to do’ section.

Focus: Creative
Living and Learning: To use calming down strategies.
To go with our current Christian Value of peace, we’ve been considering ways to calm down. Think back to our lesson last week about ways to calm down e.g counting, breathing.
Your task is to create a page all about ways to calm down. You may choose one strategy or lots of them. They can be strategies that we’ve discussed in class or something that you like to do yourself.

This week’s homework is creative and is due on Thursday 17th May.
This half term, our topic is “inventions that changed the world”. So far, we have looked at the telephone, invented by Alexander Graham Bell, and bridges designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
Isambard Kingdom Brunel was a famous engineer. He built bridges, tunnels, railways, docks and ships. Many of the works Isambard created and designed pushed the boundaries of what people were used to.
Your creative homework is to design a new item for Isambard to build. You can choose to design a bridge, a tunnel, a railway, a steam engine or an invention of your choice. Remember, Isambard pushed the boundaries of what we already know – try to make yours different to the items we already use.

This week’s homework is a practice makes perfect and is due on Thursday 10 May.
Year 1:
We’ve been looking at place value this week during Maths. We’ve practised our counting skills – forwards and backwards – and looked at how many tens and ones are in two-digit numbers (e.g. 46 can be partitioned into 40 + 6 or 4 tens and 6 ones). Our homework is to practise skills relating to place value.
Year 2:
This week, we’ve recapped and extended our learning about column addition and subtraction. We’ve learned how to carry a ten if our ones column is more than 10 and how to exchange (borrow) a ten if we need to subtract more ones that we have. Our homework is practising both of these skills along with some word problems. Don’t forget, in subtraction you don’t always need to exchange – check your numbers first! Column addition and subtraction is easier if we are confident and quick with our basic number facts – play Hit the Button, number bonds, for some quick recall practice.
