I'm looking forward to seeing many of you in school this week.

 

If you are in school, you are not expected to continue working at home, although you are welcome to do any of the suggested activities!

If you can't come into school this week, we will miss you!  Please find some ideas to keep you busy.

 

Maths

Our maths in school will focus on place value and nets - there are some worksheets to complete below

Please play the maths games on ActiveLearn and play for 10 minutes each day on Times Table Rock Stars

 

English

Make sure you are up to date with all the work on A Boy and a Bear in a Boat and practise spelling each day at https://spellingframe.co.uk/

 

On ActiveLearn, please read a chapter each day of the book about Titanic. Imagine you are Grace and write a diary entry each day about being on board the Titanic.  You may need to research more about the Titanic to add detail to your diary.
