Homework 19.11.20

Well done for completing the classroom secrets kids homework last week. I have been very impressed with the scores that you have all been getting!

As a school we have decided that we will not be setting homework this week as the children have worked really hard to complete assessments.
Continue to work on your reading and camera words/spellings and remember that you can still access Numbots and Purple Mash to select your own activities.

Year 1

For this week’s homework I have set two maths activities on Classroom Secrets Kids looking at addition and subtraction. If you are unsure of your login details please let me know and I can reprint them for you.

Year 1 have also got an additional challenge this week. For our topic learning this term we are looking at toys and comparing the toys that we play with to the toys that our parents/grandparents used to play with. This week children came up with some questions to ask their parents/grandparents so the homework task is to find the answers to the following questions:

What is your favourite toy?

What did you like about it?

What is it made of?

Does it move?

Does it talk?
