All Souls Primary School

Hello Year 2!

I have been amazed by the quality of your homework today!!

I particularly liked Jay Jay’s facts about Kenya and Cassius’s, Layla’s and Quratulains’ 3D sculptures of an African Savanna. 

Literacy / Topic.

Remember to only choose one of the activities to complete each week – you have 6 weeks of homework on the grid.

If it is a writing task, complete it in your Literacy homework book (yellow one).  If it is a creative task, then bring in what you do separately.  If it is a Maths task, complete it in your Maths homework book (blue one).

Please bring in your next piece of homework on Wednesday 7th October.

As well as completing your homework, please practise your 2x, 5x and 10x times tables and enjoy reading for at least 20 minutes each day!

On Monday 5th October, we are carrying out a science experiment to find out ‘How polar animals stay warm in icy water’.  Please send your child in with a pair of winter gloves for this activity – they may get a bit wet!!

Thank you.

Hello Year 6!

Layla – for her very artistic recruitment poster

Marianne – for using our Guided Reading text to inspire her recruitment poster

Retaj – for a beautiful and moving piece of writing

Woody, Renie, Maya and Inayah – for being brave enough to do presentations in the first week

Well done all of you!

Your homework for this week is as follows:

Literacy / Topic.  Complete one activity from the grid below (or download the grid here: Aut 1 Topic Grid).  If it is a writing task, complete it in your Literacy homework book.  If it is a creative task, then bring in what you do separately.   Bring in what you do on Wednesday 30th September.

Have a great weekend, everyone.  See you on Monday!
