For homework this week, I would like you to complete both sides of the maths fluency sheets, on consecutive days. Can you answer 5 more questions on the second day?
Each Friday, we receive English homework. We can complete this in the book and hand it in by the following Wednesday. The page/pages to complete and the date it is due can be found on the inside cover of the book. This week, our English homework is page 29.
Each week, we also need to practise our times tables using TT rockstars, read our reading book and practise our spellings.

25th November
You are all doing so well learning your times-tables. Keep it up! We keep an eye on TT Rock Stars in class to see where we are improving and where we need to focus. I am glad to see so many of you using the App.
Next week, we will be focusing on the 11x tables. There is an easy pattern you should notice when you write out the times-tables, and this will mean you only need to learn 11x11, 12x11 and 10x11.
Despite all this, your maths book homework is Test 8, revising 3x, 4x and 8x tables - We need to keep all our tables hot in our minds!
For spellings, I have added a link to EdShed where you can play games which are fun and educational.
It is lovely seeing how much you all love reading. This makes me so happy! Please send me a photo of you reading your favourite thing in your favourite reading place.

The recorded homework this week is grammar. Look at the ADJECTIVES work on Page 5. An adjective is a describing word. This should be handed in next Wednesday.
