Year 4 Homework
Date set: 18.5.18
Date Due in: 25.5.18
Reading (every day)
Please write in your reading diary
when you have read. You will have been allocated a Bug Club book to read at
home, which will be different to the one that you are reading in school. Check
with your teacher if you are not sure which one is which. Don’t forget to
answer the ‘bugs’- look out for them on each page! Please don’t “close” the
book until all the bugs have been answered.
Maths (20mins):
Our topic this week is fractions.
Maths work will be posted on Mathletics. If you have any problems accessing
this work, please speak to the teacher for a paper copy.
Please also practise your times
tables and associated division facts (e.g. 7x6=42, 6x7=42 42 ÷7=6, 42÷6=7)
Blog:
We are now looking at biographies as
our literacy focus and will be looking at the features of biographies and
writing biographies of famous people. Before writing a biography you need to
collect information about the person you will be writing about. Try to find
some information about Sir Francis Drake (This will be used in class).
Spellings (20mins):
In grammar we have been finding out
where to place the apostrophe with possessive plurals. If the word is a regular
plural, e.g. boy-boys, we add an apostrophe after the s. For example: The boys’
coats were hanging in the cloakroom.
With some words we do not add an s to
make it plural. For example child-children. If the word is an irregular plural
we add an apostrophe before the s. For example: The children’s coats were in
the cloakroom.
Your spellings this week focus on
irregular plurals, where the spelling of the singular word changes to make it
plural. You have been given singular words. We would like you to
find out and learn the spelling for each plural.
For example if you are given the singular word mouse, you would need to learn the word mice.
You need to:
• look at each word
• say the word
• copy the word in first space
• cover the words and try to write it
from memory
• check to see if they are right
