Blog:
In Geography we have been using
atlases to find out about at continents, countries and oceans of the world. For
your homework this week, we would like to choose a country and write a fact
file about it.
You could include:
- Which continent it is on
- Which countries and seas border it
- The capital city
- Other significant cities
- The flag
- Languages spoken
- The population
- The currency
- The climate
- Mountains and rivers
- Any other interesting facts.
Spellings (20mins):
In grammar we have been finding out
where to place the apostrophe with possessive plurals. If the word is a regular
plural, e.g. boy-boys, we add an apostrophe after the s. For example: The boys’
coats were hanging in the cloakroom.
With some words we do not add an s to
make it plural. For example child-children. If the word is an irregular plural
we add an apostrophe before the s. For example: The children’s coats were in
the cloakroom.
Your spellings this week focus on
irregular plurals, where the spelling of the singular word changes to make it
plural. You have been given singular words. We would like you to
find out and learn the spelling for each plural.
For example if you are given the singular word mouse, you would need to learn the word mice.
You need to:
• look at each word
• say the word
• copy the word in first space
• cover the words and try to write it
from memory
• check to see if they are right
