The homework this week is creative and is due in on Wednesday 25 April 2012.
I know about push and pull forces.
We’ve started a new mini-topic for science; we thought it would be good to see what children know about forces.
Children should show creatively something they know about the topic. Some ideas:
- a poem
- a poster
- some facts
- an observational drawing
- research using ICT
- own idea

It’s the Easter holidays and, in line with our Homework Policy, teachers do not set spellings or homework tasks. Instead, enjoy the sunny weather by getting active: a trip to the park, a game of football, a cycle ride or a long walk!
During the holidays, two of our teachers will visit Italy, one will be in Russia and one will be in…Barry Island!

Ideas could include:

- Finding examples in a variety of books or magazines.
- Your own even more creative idea.

24 February 2012
This week’s homework is creative. It’s due in on Wednesday 29 February 2012.
Next week, on Thursday 01 March, it’s World Book Day. To celebrate, all the classes are having a themed day on the subject of reading. There will be lots of activities, including an invitation for your child to dress up as a favourite book character. Linked to this, we’d like all children in school to consider their favourite story and explain why…
I can say why I like a book.
You could create a comic strip, write a book review, draw a story map, write a letter to the author… Anything you like that celebrates reading!
As always, the creative homework should be on one side of the A4 Homework Books, although creative ways to extend this are allowed!
It’s the holidays…
…so there are no spellings or homework activities.
Instead, enjoy a winter walk, the marvellous Muppets movie, some cool culture at a gallery or museum… Enjoy the half-term break.
