Homework 16th October 2012

Literacy

This week the children were so enthralled with Cassie's homework that they have decided they'd like to do their homework on the Loch Ness Monster, 'Nessie'.


Please write about the Loch Ness Monster, be as creative as you like...it's up to you how you choose to present your homework. You may choose a non-fiction style and write facts about 'Nessie' or you may choose to write a story. Some of the things you should think about when writing are:

  • Capital letters and full stops.
  • Making your writing interesting for the reader by choosing great words.
  • Separating your writing into paragraphs (something we are concentrating on at the moment in class)
  • Using a variety of connectives, to join two parts of a sentence together (and, so, because...)
  • Make sure you've created your sentence first so when you start writing it all makes sense!
Numeracy

The purpose of this homework is to provide the children with the opportunity to practice skills that they have been learning in class in previous weeks.  Click on the links below for fun interactive games that will help your child to consolidate their learning.
