Written Homework to be completed by Tuesday 3^rd October 2023

Please learn the following words for a spelling test. This week we are learning words that end in -cious:

vicious   gracious   spacious   malicious   precious   delicious  suspicious   ferocious          

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 describing words such as adjectives and adverbs?  Please refer to the ‘Monarchy’ Sheet that gives different strategies of how to learn spellings.  This has been stuck in the front of the Homework Book. The VCOP sheet also gives examples of words and punctuation you can put into your sentences to develop them.

English Task: Please find out some key facts about the Sun.  For example, how far away from the Earth is it?  What is the temperature of the Sun?  What is the Sun made of?  How big is the Sun and how old is it?  Draw a diagram of the Sun labelling the different parts.

Online Task: For Purple Mash I have set you Chapter 3 of ‘Alien Hotel’’ (our new e-book). Your login for Purple Mash has been stuck in your Homework Book.
