The WhiteRose problem solving activities for Wednesday and Thursday are quite tricky.

WhiteRose Homelearning

If you are confident that is fine, but some of you will probably benefit more from further practise about adding and subtracting fractions then doing the consolidation tasks suggestions.

Just like last week, the file includes sheets which get harder.

There are also some different video links which may help you with your fraction learning.

Wednesday and Thursday

You will probably need two sessions to write a really good version of this story using different conjunctions and thinking about different ways to start your sentences.

Video version of Ananse and the Birds

Perhaps you could make your own recording, video or make a picture book for a younger child to share with you. This might take you into the afternoon or the next day.

Friday – reading comprehension

This is my favourite Ananse story. Try the reading comprehension before you watch the video as there are some differences. Traditional stories often have different versions of the same basic story.

There are three versions in this pdf. * for Blyton ** for Donaldson  *** for Welford and Pankhurst. If you are finding the one for your group tooo easy or too tricky look at the easier or harder one. (*** is the trickiest version)

Since the weather forecast is not so great this week, I have attached some ideas for STEM practical activities to keep your minds and hands busy.

Here are some reading comprehensions about the Stoneage.

I have put them in guided reading groups to give you some guidance on the level of difficulty. Please feel free to use them in the way which best suits your family.
