Maths-
Here is some Easter themed maths. It suggests to use 10 or 20 sided dice...…... I would just write the numbers on small pieces of paper and mix them up to generate your numbers. (Unless you have them of course!!
)
As you already have lots of English activities here are some crafts related to space if you wish to have a go. If you don't have all the bits you need, don't worry, just use what you can. 
Wednesday 1st April
I hope you have been practicing telling the time! Your maths has 3 levels of challenge. (Chilli Challenge!) Choose which one you wish! You can always start cool and work up to hot...
English- I know you have lots of English already but just do them when you can. Even if you don't get round to it until next week it doesn't matter. It will stay on here for when you are ready for it.
Follow the powerpoint and the worksheets are labelled in the correct order.

Curriculum Newsletters
Autumn Term
In Science we have been looking at materials. We made structures for the 3 Little Pigs to live in, making sure they were strong.
In maths we worked together in groups to order numbers.
We used the balance scales to make comparisons. We were challenged to make the scales balance using different objects and then used the weights.
Spring Term
We used rulers and tape measures to measure objects around the classroom.

Maths Workshop
Practise maths skills at home
The children have each been given a login to a Maths activity website called Sumdog which has maths games aimed at improving their speed and accuracy in mental maths. To access this at home please visit: www.sumdog.com.
Their usernames are their first name, beginning with a capital letter, followed by the first letter of their surname (also a capital letter); their password is cat and the school code is nashmills.
e.g. Username: BenD
Password: cat
School code: nashmills
Please note that the activities are tailored to each child's abilities according to their results, so if older siblings use the same log-in , it will affect the questions asked.
