Tudor Monarch Research Project

Due in on Tuesday 4th  October

We have just met all the Tudor Monarchs and are beginning to learn a little about them.  For your homework in the coming weeks we’d like you to create a leaflet or poster or an other interesting presentation (e.g. Facebook page, model, powerpoint)  about one of the Tudor Monarchs (kings or queens).  Think about the examples you were shown from last year. Your project must include:

  • Dates of birth and death
  • Dates of monarchy (when they were king or queen)
  • Who/if they married and the names of any children
  • Interesting facts
  • A picture of the monarch

Make sure your work:

  • Shows neat presentation
  • Is eye catching!

You can use books or the topic page on this blog (for links) to help you find out information. Don’t forget homework club Monday lunchtimes and ask us if you need internet access or any resources such as paper, card etc.download-1

 

Literacy Homework 09.09.16

Literacy Homework – due in Wednesday 14th September

In class, we have been learning about the ‘VCOP’ superheroes and how they help us in our writing. To start our ‘Imaginary Worlds’ topic next week and to celebrate Roald Dahl day we have chosen an extract from ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’ Please read the extract with your child and see if they can highlight the VCOP.

Once you have read the story, identify and underline some (not all!) examples of:

Vocabulary – adjectives, adverbs and verbs

Connectives – joining words, e.g. and, because, but, so

Openers – words / phrases that start sentences

Punctuation – underline ONE example of each

Use colouring pencils. This will help you when writing your own version next week.
