Written Homework to be completed by Friday 4th December 2020

 

Please learn the following words for a spelling test on 3.12.20.  This week we are learning more words that contain silent letters:

tombstone   plumber   scissors   muscles   wrinkled   wriggle   knowledge   gnawing  

Put the word into a sentence to show that you understand 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 write a relative clause using who, which, where, when, whose and that?

Can you use a fronted adverbial at the beginning of your sentence? Can you include some speech marks in your sentences?

Can you create an expanded noun phrase or use a modal verb in your sentence?

Can you use brackets in your sentences? 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 the back of your Homework book. 

MathsTask: For your Maths task this week complete the worksheet about using the inverse operation to check calculations. This activity is to consolidate work we have recently been doing in class. 

 

Online Tasks: I have set you some online Homework for the week beginning 23.11.20. 

For MyMaths there is a mixed times tables activity and for Purple Mash I have set you 3 ‘2Dos’. There are 2 Maths activities about finding the missing numbers is addition and subtraction calculations and there is a SPAG activity entitled ‘Story Snaps’ that is about using brackets, commas and dashes to indicate parenthesis. 

 I would also like you to log into your Times Tables Rockstars Account to practise your tables.  All your logins are stuck into the front of your Homework book.
