Y4 Home Learning W.B 04.05.20

Hi Everyone,

This week’s Literacy focus is using inverted commas (speech marks) correctly.

Start off the week by going through the teaching PowerPoint on how to punctuate speech correctly: Teaching PowerPoint for Inverted Commas Inverted-Commas Helpsheet

Complete some (or all) of these worksheets on punctuating speech:Inverted Commas Activities

Test your child’s knowledge of speech rules by ending the week with a quick test:Inverted Commas Test

Challenge: Encourage your child to write their own story, which includes dialogue (speech).

Handwriting Practice: The Tyger Handwriting Sheets Blank The Tyger Poem

This week’s theme is Geography. Please look out for Mrs Evans’ post, which contains lots of lovely ideas linked to Geography.

Daily work will also be set on Purple Mash so keep a look our for new alerts on there.

As always, we’d love to see your wonderful work on our school blog or alternatively it can be emailed to us using the new Y4 email address.

Y4 Parent Email

Purple Mash emails are a great way for children/parents to communicate with us; however, there have been a few requests from parents about emailing teachers directly, without their child having access to the content. To support parents, we have set up a Y4 email address for parents to email if they have any questions about their child/child’s learning.

newdale.year4team@taw.org.uk

Many thanks,

Miss Macfarlane & Mr Jackson

Y4 History Homework

Our new History unit is based on the Anglo-Saxons.

Your challenge is to create a piece of work based on the Anglo-Saxons. You can choose how you present your work. It could be a poster, presentation, poem, story, piece of artwork, model, song etc.

You can watch Horrible Histories videos to help you as well as use online sources, when researching.

We look forward to seeing your photos/work on our homework blog.

Please note that these spellings do not follow a set rule as they are from the end of Y4 spelling list. Some parents have informed us that they are still testing their children on their spellings. This is a great idea and we hugely encourage it. Feel free to email us children’s scores.

Thanks

Y4 Home Learning

The Y4 staff have enjoyed seeing children’s work on the school blog and on Purple Mash.

As it’s almost the weekend, we just wanted to remind you that children are not expected to complete home learning tasks over the weekend (unless they really want to!).

A reminder to those who haven’t been on Purple Mash/the school blog:

If you haven’t been on Purple Mash yet, please try your best to. There are lots of tasks, which have been set, which link to units we’d be covering if we were in school at this time.

Many thanks

Y4
