Read regularly and get your diary signed. Reading books and diaries need to be in school every day. Remember, there are extra dojo points for each day that you read!

This week instead of Maths and English work on IXL, I would like you to complete a piece of geography homework that we can use during our next lesson on digital mapping.

Geography homework - please hand in on Monday (ready for the lesson)

I would like you to draw a neatly detailed map of your route to school (in pencil) labelling roads and important natural and human features along the way. It is not necessary to draw all houses/buildings along the way as there will be too many but I would include your house to show the start and the school to show the end of the route.

Man-made features you could include shops, parks, churches, school crossing patrols, bus stops, post boxes, etc.

Natural features could include trees, beach, hill, fields, etc. You will probably find that you have less natural features than man-made features.

A key of symbols used on your map should be included. These symbols could be in different colours using coloured pencils.

On the back of your work write down the name of the road you live on and the postcode , so you can easily identify where you live on an ordnance survey map. 

  • Bedrock - complete at least one lesson . Bedrock can be can be found at https://app.bedrocklearning.org/ Please note that Bedrock can now be accessed daily. However, to ensure long term retention of vocabulary please only complete one lesson if you are doing Bedrock daily. Don’t forget our competition!!!

  • Times tables - x2 x4 x8 ready for a test next week. These will also include divisions e.g. 48÷8? How many 4s are in 36? If you’re secure in these ones, then practise one that you are not so familiar with. Use TTRockstars to build up your speed.

  • Spellings for a test next week. Please press the link for the group your child is in.

Homework will need to have been completed before Thursday next week when I will check their results.
