Burps, Bottoms and Bile Year 4 - Homework Grid – Spring 1 - 2020 Homework in Year Four will consist of three types of tasks:

1. Daily practising of reading, spellings and times tables. There are pages on the school website with games and activities to help you. It is really important that children are regularly practising their times tables. They will be tested on their times tables each week. Spellings will go home in children’s reading diaries on a Monday, and they will be tested on their spellings the following Monday.

2. Weekly set tasks in maths, English and/or science. These will be sent home on a Friday and need to come into school by Wednesday morning. Homework Club will run each Wednesday lunchtime for children whose homework is not completed at home and brought in by then.

3. Topic tasks. These are shown in the grid below. These are optional so don’t have to be completed, but we would love to see them and celebrate them in school if you choose to do them!

You should prepare weekly and topic tasks to the best of your ability and check your work carefully (ensuring that you have checked your spelling and presentation) before handing them in. If you have any concerns or would like some support or help with resourcing your chosen activities, please do not

hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing all of your exciting homework this term.
