Room 8 Homework T4 W5

Thank you to all of the parents who came and watched the Arts Festival on Friday, it was a huge success and we were all very proud of the children’s efforts.
A reminder that Athletics Day will take place next Thursday 1st December. Children need to make sure they bring a change of clothes and a drink bottle for the day.

Reading
This week a lot of children have forgotten to bring their reading books back. Can you please help your child to remember to bring it back each day. Thank you to those of you who do return them.
Spelling
This week Room 8 are learning about the ‘oo’ sound, in words like ‘look’ and ‘could’. Get your child to brainstorm as many words that have the ‘oo’ sound in it:

Maths
Rectangles
Practise doubles and halves to 20.
Eg. 8 +8 = 16 so half of 16 is 8

Squares
Practise skip counting in 10s to 100. How many tens/decades in the following numbers?
52 _____ 64 ______ 98 ______ 23_______

Triangles and circles
Keep practising your basic facts to 10. A good way of doing this is using cards and adding the two numbers together (like we do in class). Wonder if you can beat mum and dad?!
