Welcome to our second week back. It has a lovely Spring feel to it now. We launched our term's theme, the book and film Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz last week and completed many pieces of revision, past papers etc. Your homework is below, containing important revision which is the main theme of this week along with equations in maths and the second chapter of Stormbreaker. Please ensure that you have P.E kit in school not only Wednesday but everyday as we may grab opportunities to get outside to punctuate your revision.

   Homework  20/04/15            

   Due in on Friday as homework will be given out on Mondays.

English

 You have a revision grammar task on plurals and verb endings to complete. It is William Shakespeare’s birthday this week and I would like a few short paragraphs on who Shakespeare was, when he lived, what he achieved, where in this country we specifically remember him and an overview of one of his plays. Remember your punctuation and grammar as you write, treat it as a revision exercise.

Please log on to our New Zealand blog and write to one friend in New Zealand. Record in your homework book who you wrote to and when.

Maths – Neolithic, Bronze Groups

You have been allocated online homework this week. You have to find the missing lengths or angles in shapes. If you know the entire perimeter, you can find one or two missing sides. You also have a challenge sheet of questions finding angles at a point, on a straight line and which are vertically opposite.

Iron Group

You have a challenge sheet B on constructing quadrilaterals accurately. You will need a protractor so take one from school but it must come back. Tick your name off the list on the board. We will also look through your L6 Rising Stars together and decide which pages for homework.

Please ensure that you have completed any backlog of online maths challenges, it will be good revision too.
