Year 5 Homework- Due Thursday 25th January

Reading

All children have been given a post it note which should be inside their reading book. This is a target that they have set for themselves in the time to complete the book. Big house points up for grabs for each target complete.


Spellings

This week we have looked at homophones again but have focused on ‘near-homophones’ which are words with the same sound and very similar spelling. The first 8 spellings focus on this theme. I have attached some of the techniques that we used to help differentiate these words. It would be great if the children could practise writing these words in sentences. The next four spellings are other homophones that we have covered this year.

  1. affect

  2. except

  3. practice

  4. advise

  5. effect

  6. accept

  7. advice

  8. practise

  9. aloud

  10. passsed

  11. guest

  12. stationery

    • affect effect accept except- The words that begin with an a are verbs

    • advise practise advice practice

      words ending in se are verbs. Words ending in ce are nouns.


Maths

  • D9- Choose a multiples of a given number up to 12.
