Year 4 Spring 2 Week 2 Homework

Mrs Khaliq

Hi year 4,

Here is this week’s homework. Don’t forget it must be finished by Wednesday morning. Complete a minimum of two pieces and if you have any problems, let your teacher know on Monday morning.

Maths

To recall multiplication facts 

Practise your times tables on TTRS and record your score in your homework book.   

Make sure you play for at least 10 minutes. 

English

To write a persuasive text. 

Write a text to persuade. You can write about deforestation or any other topic you feel is important.

Below is an example of a persuasive text.

Proposal to allow all teachers a free supply of chocolate when teaching at Broad Heath School

The purpose of this report is to discuss a proposal which has recently been made by the year 3, 4, 5 and 6 teachers to the Head Teacher of Broad Heath School, requesting that free supplies of chocolate be made readily available to all teaching staff when teaching.  All teaching and support staff are in absolute agreement that this would bring many positive benefits to the school, and we will describe these benefits here. 

Firstly, we are completely convinced that a free supply of chocolate would increase the number of happy faces both around the staff room and throughout school.  At least 90% of teaching staff enjoy eating a variety of chocolate on a regular basis.  If they were to be given this free, not only would it save them money but it would also save them going out to the shop to buy the aforementioned chocolate.  These two reasons, added with the delight that teacher would have when actually eating the chocolate, would most definitely make teachers happier and more relaxed. 

Secondly, we passionately believe that the quality of teaching would greatly improve if teachers were to be given a regular supply to Cadburys, Nestle and other assorted chocolate goodies.  Teachers would actually increase the happy chemicals in their brain as a result of eating the delicious chocolate, and therefore would be more relaxed and ready to teach their classes.  When they are sat struggling over a huge pile of books to mark, a mouthful of chocolate would wake them up and get their brains and pens working again! What parent wouldn’t want their children being taught by happy, chocolate-fuelled teachers?

Finally, we are all in agreement that the pupils Broad Heath School would benefit from their teachers receiving these free supplies of chocolate.  Not only would they receive a better standard of teaching from happier staff, but they would most certainly receive less telling off!  Teachers would be so happy from eating their free chocolate, that they would never have any reasons to shout at their pupils.  In fact, even when the teachers have real reason to get upset with their class, they could simply reach into their draw and gobble down whatever delicious snack was nearby, which would most definitely make them feel better!

The staff at Broad Heath School ask you to seriously consider their proposal.  We truly believe that a free and endless supply of chocolate would lead to happier staff, happier pupils and an all-round happier school.  Surely no one can deny that an increase in chocolate within school grounds would be a wonderful thing?

WOW

    Why is football important

    The game of football is something that is very intriguing. People think that it’s a only a game of star athletes there is much more to this game. Behind the scenes is where the true football players are made. Hard work, long days, and fatigue all describe what the preparation is like. However, while all of this seems so difficult the rewards that being a football player provides are priceless. Everyone is always looking out for each other and nothing can separate them. Not only do they become friends on the field, but off the field as well.
    Another one of the great rewards of football is game days. After the long, hard week of practice is over it is time for the team to see how they match up. There is nothing better than preparing to walk onto the field in front of lots of fans. The football game itself is something that every player always enjoys. One main reason players enjoy it is because if they mess up at any time, there is always an opportunity later in the game to make up for it.

      The purpose of this report is to discuss how i believe that children in schools in the uk do not get enough break time.Break time is around 15 minutes in most schools in the uk. I think it should be at least 30 minutes and I also think there should be more break times during the day.
      Firstly we know children need to have exercise and move around because they are growing and have alot of extra energy that they need to get out .If children can’t get their energy out they surely won’t beable to sit still or concentrate on their class work.This will lead to getting in to trouble , not enough work done , then loosing break time .This won’t help it will make things worse. Also they will get lower grades , they will feel frustrated, stressed and sad.
      Secondly being out side makes children happy , in school it is somewhere safe they can play , run , climb, relax, and get fresh air. Some children have no gardens at home or anyone to play with , they don’t get the chance to play outdoors , so school playtime is so inportant.
      I think happy children can learn better and will want to learn more because they feel good .
      Thirdly other countries have had good results in giving their students longer playtime. For example Finland gives their their students 15 minutes break every 45 minutes of class .Finland is the 8th most educated country in the world.
      . Finish children spend more time playing outside, even in the winter and homework is minimal.They realise how time outdoors is particularly important for children’s mental health – reducing stress, giving a sense of calm and simply making them happier.This has given Finland the distinction of being the most equitable school system in the world. Its proven that by increasing time spent out of the classroom actually has the effect of creating a positive learning environment for all students.
      Maybe this is why Finland is ranked as the happiest country in the world in the latest World Happiness Report .If the uk tried this aybe children would enjoy school more , learn more , and be happier also the teachers would be happier with well behave children who want to learn.

    Is Messi better than Mbappe ?
    Introduction :
    Messi has won 1 ballon dor at 21 years old but Mbappe has not.
    Arguement 1: Messi skilled all of real betas but Mbappe has not skilled the defenders and goalkeeper. Messi captain’s Argentina but Mbappe does not captains France.

    Argument 2: Messi has won everything except the puskas award Mbappe has not.

    Therefore Messi is the goat.

      Good girl Sabiha for trying to beat your score.

      Sabiha what is your opinion on deforestation? Please explain your answers and give reasons why.

  13. Lawan R.

    we should be allowed to have more lunch time because teachers will like it to. maybe from 45 minutes 55. and teachers will have a longer break from us.

    1. Head Teacher

      It would also give you more time to get into trouble and add to teacher’s stress. Thoughts?

    2. Miss Nisa

      Hi Lawan

      Good start but can you back up your argument with more than 1 piece of evidence or explanation. Look at the examples above.

  14. Mahdi R.

    English:
    Recycle plastic in the ocean.
    Did you know that recycling in the ocean can save animals?
    If you put plastic bags in the ocean will cause animals to get trapped in plastic bin, plastic bag and plastic wrapper.

    because animals like to stay plastic in their home but cannot get out.
    sometimes people like to put plastic things in the ocean and some people don’t like to put plastic in the ocean.

      Love it and yes you make a good point. Does having more playtimes lead to more problems as this is when the majority of poor behaviour occurs in schools?

    2. Miss Nisa

      Excellent explanation Delilah!

      How often do you think we should have break time during the day and how will that help you ?

    Title:Messi is better than Ronaldo

    Introduction:
    As if you know there is a rivalry Messi vs Ronaldo.
    Both have won many awards and played for big
    clubs like Messi played for Catalonian club
    Barcelona.

    Argument 1:
    Messi has won the most ballan’dors (7 ballan’dors)he also skilled up the whole real
    Betis team like Maradona did to England in 1986
    .15% of
    his goals are international goals for Argentina.
    Even though he had scored more than ten amazing goals he hasn’t won a puscas award yet
    so fifa is corrupt.

    Argument 2:
    Messi has won the World Cup last year ,but Ronny has never won it. Messi has seven Ballan
    Dors Cristiano has five.Messi got five champions
    Leagues and Ronaldo has five.Messi has 4golden
    boot and Ronaldo has 4 golden boot
