Topic homework – Year 3/4
We are sending home a list of activities with the central theme of our topic, Buglandia.
This will draw on Science, ICT, Literacy, French and DT skills to be completed over the
entire half term. We recommend you start the group 1 activity as soon as you like, try
not to leave things to the last minute!
We would like you to complete 3 tasks altogether over the half term. Try and chose 1
task from each group. The weekly spelling and maths sheet will still be given out every
Friday as normal BUT this will start as of next Friday 18th September. As always,
please ask if you need any support for any of the activities.
