In Owl class we have been working very hard on our new topic of shape. We have previously explored angles and are now moving onto parallel and perpendicular lines. For this week's homework activity, we would like children to become more accustomed to the vocabulary and understand that these tricky (and long) words are names for slightly less complicated concepts. Please complete either page 1 (bronze), page 2 (silver) or page 3 (gold) from the attachment below.

This week in maths, we have started our unit on time. Attached is a little challenge for the children to complete over the next week of things they can do in 10 seconds, 1 minute and 5 minutes. They are going to make an estimate first of how many of the activity they think they will be able to do, time themselves then record the actual amount.

This week we have continued to focus on our topic of money. We have explored adding and subtracting money as well as working out how much change we would receive from certain amounts.

We have moved onto our new topic of money this week. Below are some activities to practice using pounds and pence. If you choose bronze, please choose 2 of the activities to complete- you do not have to complete them all!

Maths Homework - To be uplodaed to Dojo by 26.04.24

As part of our new topic we have been working to deepen our understanding on fractions. This week we have covered adding and subtracting fractions as well as finding fractions of certain amounts. We would like children to consolidate this learning at home through this weeks homework. Children can choose their challenge from the activity below. 

Using their times tables skills will be so importnat when finding fractions of amounts. The denominator will be the times tables that they will need to focus on counting in. eg: 1/5 of 20, they would count in 5s until they get to 20 (5, 10, 15, 20) 4 times so 1/5 of 20 is 4.

Easter Holiday Homework

Over the Easter Holidays, please can the children continue to practice TT Rockstars to build on the fluency of their times table knowledge and recall. 

If the children would like to get on our school leaderboard, they have to play 'studio' we have talked about it and the children are really keen to get competitive with Year 4! Playing 'Gig' mode will enable them to develop their heat map and it then targets specific questions for them to focus on.

Have a lovely Easter!

This week, we have been looking at measuring mass- with a particular focus on grams and kilograms. Below are some activities to complete on equivalent masses. We have talked about the word equivalent coming from the word equal which means the same. The children should be familiar with the concept of 1000g = 1kg and using simple fractions like half and quarter related to 1kg. If the children would like an extra challenge, there is an extension activity attached to complete.

Maths Homework- 08.03.24 to be completed by 15.03.24

This week, we have completed our work on Fractions and have started looking at our new topic of mass and capacity. We have completed a baseline of the children's current recall of their times tables to see where their gaps are and how we can support with recalling them at speed.

I have re-introduced TT Rockstars to the children this week, I know some of them have been logging in, but we would like to do a bigger push on more frequent use of the programme. Therefore, for their homework for maths this week, can they please log into TT Rockstars (their log in is in their reading record books) and have a go at some of the games that are available. I have attached the parent's guide for your reference to gain a better understanding of each of the features.

Maths Homework - due by 01.03.24

Currently in Maths we are focussing on fractions. We have already studied non-unit fractions (a fraction with 1 as the numerator) and started to compare fractions. Our mantra this week has been 'the bigger the denominator, the smaller the fraction'. For this week's homework task we would like children to compare fractions. Please refer to the worksheets attached.
