Y6 Homework – Thursday 19th January 2012

 

THIS WEEK’S HOMEWORK…

Two pieces again tonight…

 

ENGLISH

This is the forth in our short series of spelling/vocabulary related pieces of homework. Last week’s task caused a few problems when it came to highlighting the unstressed/unpronounced vowels (a, e, i, o, u). Some of you must speak in a very peculiar way given that you underlined all the vowels! I have highlighted some of the vowels I don’t normally stress, although it could be argued that, being a Yellowbelly with a tendency to throw in a little dialect here and there, I would benefit from elocution lessons!

 

As usual, this week there is an activity featuring some useful and important vocabulary to complete. I would also like you to have a go at learning the spellings to for a quick, informal test the following Wednesday.

 

Tip: I’ve said this every time, but please make sure you have copied the words out correctly before you hand your book in on Monday! This will allow you to keep practising, although

 

The aim of this series of tasks is twofold; to extend vocabulary and to spell such words correctly. The words will either be linked by patterns or themes. The reason we do the informal test in our English books is so that the words are there to use!

 

 

SCIENCE

As part of the Keeping Healthy topic, we are looking at micro-organisms and food hygiene. This short homework goes over some of the things we have covered in class already.

 

REMINDERS

 

Please remember PE kit should be in school everyday.

 

There will be a PGL meeting imminently, although if you have other children who have been on one of my residentials, you’ve heard it all before!
