| Chestnut class homework Due Wednesday 2nd November 2011 Name: Over half term it would be great if you could complete a book review for a book you have been reading recently. You will find copies of the book reviews for both fiction (stories) and non-fiction (information books) inside; you may choose whichever you like. Please continue practising times tables, although we practise these at school, children are all at different stages so individual practice at home is key to supporting children;s learning. Please also practice any of the spellings you've had over the last three weeks, as we will be retesting and investigating these after half term. Often children learn them perfectly for the test, but begin to forget them if they do not use them in their writing! Silly sentences can make spellings practice more fun, as can writing different versions of the word and asking your child to spot the mistakes. Most importantly, have a fantastic half term. I look forward to seeing you all refreshed after the break.!  |

| Chestnut class homework Due Wedneday 12th October 2011 Name: In maths we have been rounding numbers to the nearest 10 or 100, estimating, number sequences, and halving. For homework this week you need to practice your times tables, for whichever of these you are not yet confident with. Tick the one you feel sure you know. 2x 5x 10x 3x 4x 6x 8x 7x 9x Concentrate on just one for the week to make sure you do not confuse yourself. It is sensible to start with the first few facts and gradually begin to add others. Always practise saying the whole times table like this: 1 times 3 is 3... 2 times 3 is 6... 3 times 3 is 9… etc… Then you can ask someone to test you on them out of order! We will do some tables tests in class next week to see how you are getting on. ________________________________ Have a go at some of these, make sure you read what it is asking you to do! Write the next 3 numbers in each of these sequences: 3, 7, 11, 14, ______, ______, ______ 58, 64, 70, 76, _______, _______, _______ 116, 127, 138, 149, _______, _______, _______ ... and a challenge or two if you fancy... 1098, 1038, 978, 918, _______, _______, _______ 128, 64, 32, 16, ______, ______, ______ Round these numbers to the nearest 10. (You can cross out the H digit if you'd like to do just 2 digits.) 64  ____ 72  ____ 96  ____ 27  ____ 781  ____ 651  ____ 539  ____ 404  ____ ... another challenge if you can... Round these numbers to the nearest 100. (Look at the T digit to decide if you round up or down, then look t the H digit.) 781  ______ 605  ______ 239  ______ 461  ______ |
