Written Homework to be completed by 29^th March  2022

1. Please learn the following words for a spelling test. This week we are learning words that contain prefixes:

disappoint disagree   disobey   dishonest   distrust   misbehave   misspell   mislead   reappear   redecorate       

2. Put each word into a sentence that explains the meaning   If you are unsure, look the word up in a dictionary. Please put a comparative conjunction (e.g. as well as, also, equally, similarly, likewise) or contrasting conjunction (e.g. alternatively, although, whereas, while, in contrast, however, despite) into your sentence. Can you use an expanded noun phrase?  Can you use commas, dashes or brackets to show additional information? Can you use some direct speech? Remember to use a range of punctuation.  You do not need to do all of these things!  Try using at least three!  Please look carefully at the VCOP sheet that has been stuck into your Homework book.  This will help you.  The Monarchy sheet tells you strategies to help you learn your spelling and the use of pyramid words.
3. English Task: For your research I would like you to find out some information about the Victorian schoolroom and Victorian education.  How was it different from the way children were taught today?  Did all children go to school during Queen Victoria’s reign? 
4. Online Tasks: For Purple Mash I have set you a new e book to read entitled ‘Just the Beginning’.  I have set you Chapter 3 and a quiz to go with this.  For Classroom Secrets Kids I have set you a task entitled Division with Remainders to consolidate the work we have been doing in class.  Your logins for Classroom Secrets Kids and Purple Mash have been stuck in your Homework Book.
