Term 5 Week 2

Homework for Lilac Class for the week beginning 28.4.25

Written Homework to be completed by Tuesday 6th May 2025

Please learn the following words for a spelling test. There are 10 words this week.  This week we are learning words that contain the letter string ‘ough’:

plough   bough   drought   brought   bought   wrought   thought   ought   borough   thorough 

This week I would like you to write a sentence containing each word to show that you understand the meaning.  Include as many of the following as you can; these have been covered in our SPaG lessons:

  • Can you use commas, full stops and capital letters correctly? 
  • Can you use some direct speech in your sentences including different words for ‘said’? 
  • Can you use a relative pronoun such as that, which, who, whom and where?
  • Can you use an expanded noun phrase? 
  • Can you use parenthesis – brackets, commas or dashes to show additional information?  

Please refer to the ‘Monarchy’ Sheet that gives different strategies for how to learn spellings. This has been stuck in the front of your child’s Homework Book.

Maths Task: This week I would like you to complete the worksheet entitled Perimeter of rectangles.  Online Tasks: For Purple Mash I have set you Chapter 2 of a new e-book ‘A Tiger’s Path’.  Your login for Purple Mash has been stuck in your Homework Book.
