Class 4 Homework

This week the children have been looking at equivalent fractions and simplifying fractions. For homework, we would like the children to practise simplifying using the online game:

http://www.iboard.co.uk/iwb/Simplifying-Fractions-Game-366

The game firstly asks for the highest common factor (the highest number that can divide into the number on the top and bottom of the fraction) and then children need to divide the top and bottom number by the number they have selected to give them the simplified fraction.

When children have done this they can have a go at simplifying fractions on the worksheet using the same method.

Please ask if anything requires further explanation. Children are welcome to use the school computers at break time if they are unable to access the game at home.

Please note, the link to the worksheet also contains the answers (for parents eyes only!!) Yellow group can choose either worksheet to complete.

reduce_fractions blue orange yellow

reduce_fractions yellow green red

Many thanks,

Mrs Chadwick

Home learning journey books

Unfortunately the Home Learning Journey books for Reception were missed when filling the book bags ready for home this afternoon. If your child would like to make a collection of pictures, pieces of writing, drawings, photos, leaflets etc from the Easter holiday break, Mrs Conde will hand the books out on the first day back and collect them in later in the week to give your child chance to stick their items in. We will then spend time sharing their books with each other in class. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. We hope you all have a lovely Easter!

Class 4 Homework

Over the Easter holidays, we would like the children to write and design their own information leaflet. Please could it be about somewhere that they have visited over the next couple of weeks. They can use many of the organisational features of non-fiction texts that we have covered this year, such as:

  • Headings/Subheadings
  • Paragraphs/Bullet points
  • Diagrams/Pictures/Photographs
  • Captions/Labels
  • Fact boxes

The children could even have a go at using persuasive language that would encourage other people to visit.

Please could homework be returned by the first Wednesday back.

If you have any questions regarding the homework, please do not hesitate to speak to us.

Thank you for your support.

U11s Football 

Well done also to the Year 5 and 6 boys who played in last week’s Small Schools semi finals at Sundorne.  It was wonderful to see how far the boys have progressed as a team since September and it was only goal difference that resulted in them not making it through to the final. Thank you to mums, dads and grandparents who have supported the boys this year.

Coop Fairtrade Donations

Thank you to the Coop for the Fairtrade products they provided us with for a fantastic display in reception and to Laura for giving up her time to create the display.  We have decided to donate the food items to the Food Bank in Shrewsbury.

Class 4 Homework

In English, we have been learning about the Shaman’s Apprentice and talking about how it makes us feel.
Can you use the thinking questions or cues to discuss a book of your choice with an adult? Write down your thoughts!

I like the bit where…
It reminds me of…
It makes me feel…
I don’t like it when…
I wonder if…
Do you think that…?
I don’t understand…
Have you noticed that?
