This week’s homework is Creative and is due on Thursday 22 October.
As we are reaching the end of the half term, we wanted to use this opportunity to see how much you’ve learned during our Science unit:
I can share what I’ve learned during ‘Living things and their habitats’.
Here a couple of ideas that might help you to get started:
- a poster with animals in one particular habitat or animals in different habitats
- a collage of photographs that you take in some habitats near you
- tell a story about some animals in their habitat on a comic strip
- search for a template online or create your own
- a series of food chains with arrows to show the transfer of energy
Send your work into your class teacher.

This week’s whole school homework is moral themed and is a Talk Time homework. It is due in next Thursday, 08 October.
What makes someone beautiful?
We have been reading ‘The Ugly Five’ by Julia Donaldson. (This is a YouTube link. Top tip for watching YouTube with your child: go to the settings cog along the play bar and turn off autoplay – this avoids an inappropriate clip coming up automatically, and helps to discourage your child from passively watching clip after clip). The animals are called ‘ugly’ in the beginning but then realise that they are actually lovely/beautiful. Talk about what makes an animal or person beautiful. For example:
- Who decides what is beautiful?
- Does it matter what you look like?
- Is what a person does or says more important than what they look like?
- How many different ways can you be beautiful or lovely?
