Homework Week 7

Hi everyone,
I am putting this up a bit early to give boys time to think about words they can use for their writing next week.

HOMEWORK WEEK 7:

WRITING – this week you are going to create your own shape poem about sailing. A shape poem is a poem with lots of ADJECTIVES to describe something. Your poem should also take on the shape of the topic. E.g. A poem about a tree.

Think about brainstorming a list of words to describe sailing or vocabulary you are learning throughout the week. Then put those words into descriptive sentences in the shape of a wave, sailboat, sailor, etc. 

*Boys can also create a shape poem about a topic of their choice if they finish this task early.

 

 

READING – read every night written and signed in your diary

MATHS – Unit 4, same levels as last week

SPELLING: Practice weekly words, mark off in your homework book and complete a parent test. Extension boys complete extension spelling sheet.
