Written Homework to be complete by Tuesday 14^th March 2023

Please learn the following words for a spelling test. This week we are learning to spell words with the ‘or’ sound spelt ‘au’:

pause   cause   launch   astronaut   restaurant   sauce   author   August  applaud  fraud  

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? Can you use an expanded noun phrase?  Can you use parenthesis – brackets, commas or dashes to show additional information?  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 the Victorian classroom.  How was education different from today?  How were children punished?  What did they write with and what did they write on?  What subjects did they learn? How were children taught?  Online Tasks: For Purple Mash please finish reading our e-book ‘Ollie and the Great Stink’. I have set a Classroom Secrets Kids activity this week entitled Divide 4 digits by 1 digit Challenge. Your logins for Classroom Secrets Kids and Purple Mash have been stuck in your Homework Book.
