English
Title: Can I identify different types of words?
Since the half term break, we have been learning about different types of words. This week your homework is to colour in the picture using the key to show the different types of words.
Cherries and Grapes – You must find and colour verbs, adjectives and nouns.
Oranges and Pears – You must find and colour verbs, adjectives, nouns and adverbs.
Strawberries and Watermelons – You must find and colour verbs, adjectives, nouns, adverbs, prepositions for place (we learnt about these before half term) and conjunctions.
You must only use colouring pencil to colour in the picture – no coloured pens, sharpies or highlighters of any sort. Please put the long date and title in your English homework book, making sure you underline both using a ruler and pencil. Then cut and stick in your picture and the key.
Times Tables
Make sure you are also learning your times tables every day. We do Cracking Times Tables every Monday.

Times Tables
Make sure you are also learning your times tables every day. We will be doing Cracking Times Tables on Monday!
Reading
Reading regularly is essential to help improve all aspects of your learning as well as being an excellent way to relax! You are expected to read at least 4 times/week but aim to read everyday if possible! House points are awarded for reading and recording what you have read.
We will be collecting Home School Books in on Monday. Please make sure you get an adult to sign your book.
Have a lovely weekend ☺

Year 5
Over the next few weeks we will be looking at discussion texts. This past week we have looked at what features are found in a discussion text. We have also begun expressing and voicing our opinions in a debate. We have also begun looking at an exemplar model text for Year 5; this will be used to help us unpick the necessary features needed in a discussion piece, with the aim of writing our own at the end of the unit.
In order to do this we need to know our model text really well. This week for homework we are setting Year 5 the challenge to learn this section of the text by heart. You each have a copy of the text map, as well as a copy of the text to help you learn this at home. The text is being learnt in class so you have already had a little practice.
We are also giving you a copy of part of our script for our Christmas performance. If you would like a speaking part for this please could you look at the script, learn a small part from one character, and we will audition you next week. You should learn your part by heart, add expression and actions to make your role as interesting to watch as possible. Please note there are not many speaking parts in this performance but everyone will be involved in some way.
Year 6
Christmas Play – If you would like a speaking part in the Whole School Christmas play, then please practise the paragraph that has been given to you, ready to audition and perform on Tuesday.
