Mrs Wilkshires Year 3/4 Class: Home Tasks

Homework for Mr Hall’s class

Hello year four and five, I hope you have all enjoyed the Easter holidays and have been able to enjoy some of the lovely sunshine we have had. I am missing you lots and am hoping that we can all be together again soon. Until then, I will be setting you some homework to do each day.

Please use the same rules that we follow in class. Take your time to read the homework carefully. Remember to write or draw your work neatly in your book. Check and edit your work to make sure you haven’t missed anything out or made any mistakes. If using the computer, save your work using a sensible name. Always try your best.

In the homework grid are two activities for you to try to complete each day. Most are tasks that you can finish the same day. However, there are a few that either follow on to the next day, or to the next week.

You have all been given your HWB and My Maths user names and passwords, but if you are having difficulty please e-mail me on maesycoedprimary82@gmail.com

Sometimes you will record your work in the book we provided, or on HWB using either j2write or Office 365 for Word or PowerPoint. Please remember to save your work.

I would also like you to try to do two of the bottom ‘Daily Five’ activities if possible. These are reading, maths practise, keep fit, being creative and helping someone out with something.

Ideas for Daily Five

Reading Ideas -any books, magazines or newspapers you may have at home. Reading or listening to e-books online (go to www.oxfordowl.co.uk and register for this free site) Browse the eBooks. Reading recipes, instructions for games, information on the school blog or any other text you have at home.

Maths Ideas – everyday maths such as telling the time, money and measures. Possible questions - What time does this tv programme start? How long did it last? What will the time be in 45 minutes? How long is it until you go to bed? How much does this cost? What coins / notes can I use? How much is this item plus this item? How much change would I have? What is the total weight of these two tins? How much flour do we need to make this? How many pop bottles would make 2 litres?

Keep Fit Ideas – Daily walk, jog or run, Joe Wicks PE work out, exercises in the garden, skipping, dancing, circuits in house or garden.

Being Creative Ideas – drawing, painting, collage, making junk models, building with Lego or any kind of blocks or sets, singing songs (www.outoftheark.co.uk) or (www.youtube.com) making actions, dancing, acting and performing.

Helping someone out – think about what people could need help with, such as, mowing the lawn, cleaning the dishes, hoovering, walking the dog etc!
