Year 5 have been set some tasks on Classroom Secrets Kids. These revise finding fractions of amounts. This is something we did a few weeks ago – research shows that it important to recall previous learning in order for it to stick in our memories. It was great to see that homework had been completed well this week. Well done Year 5.

Children who are finding that they are a little rusty at some of their halving and doubling skills might like to use these fun games on Hit the Button. The web version of this is completely free and lots of fun.

Year 6 have been set pages from their CPG books again this week and should bring these to their booster groups as usual. The Monday group have been given p 37,38 and 39.

Year 5 and Year 6 will be looking at measure and learning how to convert units of measure next week. This will utilise and revise the decimal skills the class have been building over the last few weeks. It would be useful for the children to look at the packaging of the food and drinks in your fridge and cupboards at home to get an remind themselves of the units of measure used and how much things weigh and how much various containers hold.

Year 5 have been allocated tasks on Classroom Secrets Kids.

These relate to the decimal, percentages and the FDP (fraction decimal, percentage) equivalence learning which has been taking place in class this week.

Year 6 have been given pages from CGP books during booster groups again.

The Monday Year 6 booster group have been asked to complete pages 6,7 and 8 (Decimals, Rounding and Mixed Practice).

Maths homework for Year 5 has been set again on Classroom Secrets Kids.

Well done to all those children that have completed or attempted all their tasks again this week.

Homework it intended to support, rehearse and give opportunities to recall learning that has taken place in class that week. It was disappointing to see that several children have not attempted the tasks.

Please let me know if you are struggling with your homework – we can help if you are stuck. I am happy to allow children to complete tasks in a lunchtime club if internet access is a problem.
