We will be launching an exciting whole school science challenge! Mrs Mason will explain it all in assembly on Monday but in the meantime you can get going with the challenge by clicking on the link below.
Please could helicopters be brought in on Tuesday for the Year 4 fly off!
Please find below, links to examples of previous years work:
Tudor Monarch extras
This homework is optional! It is a bit of fun and could be a family project which carries on the learning we are doing at school! Share our enjoyment of the Tudors-you may learn something!
Bring it in whenever it is ready-there is no time limit!
The children have been busy researching their chosen Tudor Monarch and are now making team posters to show what they have learnt. For your homework we’d like you to create something to add to the presentation that gives additional interesting facts about the monarch.
The way you present can be as creative as you like e.g. powerpoint, Morpho, a model etc.
Think about the examples you were shown from last year and look on the blog for links to more creative and imaginative examples.
Many thanks
Year 4
In class the children have been focusing on persuasive texts, and getting to know the text ‘Oatlands Village.’ For homework, please can children ‘unpick’ the text by identifying and underlining the VCOP.

This week we have had great fun finding the averages of the hit points on our Pokémon cards.
We Are Learning To find an average (the mean)
For homework this week complete another 5 or more questions from the sheets below-choose your own level of challenge.
If you really want to challenge yourself, try to find some averages around the home-see Mrs Judd’s examples! This is optional:-
Literacy Homework 10/03/17 due ASAP
For our newspaper topic, the children have chosen what they would like to write a newspaper article about. For homework, children are to collect quotes from real people that they can use in their article as direct and reported speech. If children need to ask people around the school, they are welcome to do so in their own break times or during homework club at lunchtime on Monday.
For example: If their newspaper report is about Guilbert – the school dog, they will need to prepare questions to ask Mrs Lovell and find her around the school during break or lunch to politely ask her a few questions.
When interviewing children should:
• Have clear questions ready to ask their interviewee.
• Write answers in note form (in homework books).
• Repeat interviewees answers back to them to make sure they have written down to double check.
• If possible, take a photograph and send to their class teacher/print a copy.

Homework is a repetition of the questions the children answered in these challenges. Due in on Wednesday-homework Club is on Monday Lunchtime.
