Written Homework to be complete by Tuesday 28^th February 2023

Please learn the following words for a spelling test. This week we are learning to spell some more homophones and near homophones:

principal  principle   profit   prophet   desert   dessert   draft   draught   flower   flour

This week I would like you to write a sentence containing each word to show that you understand the meaning.  Can you use commas, full stops and capital letters correctly?  Can you use some direct speech in your sentences?  Can you use a relative pronoun such as that, which, who, whom and where? Please refer to the ‘Monarchy’ Sheet that gives different strategies of how to learn spellings. This has been stuck in the front of your child’s Homework Book.

English Task: This week I would like you to find out some information about Florence Nightingale and draw a picture of her. When was she born and when did she die?  Describe her background.  What contributions did she make to nursing as a profession?  Online Tasks: For Purple Mash I have set you Chapter 5 and an online quiz for our e-book ‘Ollie and the Great Stink’. I have set a Classroom Secrets Kids activity this week entitled Multiply 3 digits by 2 digits. Your logins for Classroom Secrets Kids and Purple Mash have been stuck in your Homework Book.
