The homework this week is talk time and should be completed by Wednesday 16 April:
Is it possible to be a good pirate?
There has been a lot of discussion this week about how people from the past are viewed in different ways. The same person can be seen as a hero or a villain. With this in mind, explore whether you think there is such a thing as a good pirate.
We will be having a discussion in class next week about whether it is possible to be a good pirate – so make sure you’ve got some points ready.

Homework again this week is some practice makes perfect and it’s for maths.
Children have been given four mental maths tests to complete. I suggest they don’t leave all four until Tuesday night! Instead, I would recommend they do them on different nights throughout the week.
The tests will help the children with their mental maths speed and skills.
Homework is due in on Wednesday 09 May.
It’s vital that homework is handed in on time as the lesson on Wednesday is based on the homework.

This week’s homework is creative and is due in on Wednesday 02 May.
I can show what I know about pirates. Arrrgh!
Our new Pirates topic starts next week! Children should choose a creative way to show what they know about pirates. This week we break the normal creative homework rule of keeping our creativity confined to an A4 page: the best homeworks will be displayed on the wall so…
- make them as colourful and interesting as possible
- they could be on larger paper, or even on something 3D
Now, stop acting like a landlubber and get yer pirate thinking cap on!

- a poem
- a poster
- some facts
- an observational drawing

- own idea
