Homework

Homework will be set on a Monday, to be completed by the following Monday. There are also two optional inspirational tasks every term, which can be found below.

Our weekly homework consists of:

1.10 minutes reading per day, including reading to an adult and being read to by an adult.

2. Five minutes practise of phonics and tricky words twice per week.

3. Five minutes practise of counting in 2s, 5s and 10s twice per week.

Optional Inspirational Tasks: Term Three

Task One: Science

We are studying everyday materials in science this term. Can you complete the two activity sheets? Have a look around your home for materials that different objects are made from. Talk to an adult about why objects are made from certain materials, such as metal door handles for strength. Also look at the properties of materials, for example why are some transparent and others opaque?

You could also have some fun drawing objects and materials that would be completely unsuitable for them. For example, 'Imagine... a door made of jelly, a radiator made of chocolate and a window pane made of metal!

Task Two: Art

In geography we are learning about the different seasons. Please go for a Winter walk. Have a look at the nature around you. You can take photographs of what you see. When you get home can you create a Winter picture? You can do this in any way you wish to. You could print your photographs to make a collage, or create your own picture in paints, felt pens etc or do a collage. You could draw exactly what you have seen or create a picture in your own style. Here are some pictures to give you some ideas:
