Work for the week 11/5
Hi all,
I hope that you are all keeping safe
and well. I want to compliment everyone on the fantastic work completed to
date. I’m blown away by the outstanding work completed by all.
Below is a list of work for the week of
the 11th of May.
Fun Friday
This week’s fun Friday idea is to get out
exploring the birds in our locality. Now that we can travel
5km from our house you might be able to think of an area where you could see a
variety of birds. Try to record their names and where you saw them in your copy
using the images below to identify the birds if necessary.
Maths

10’s and 11 times tables in particular
This week we are going to focus on revision
of the maths topics covered throughout the year.
Complete pg 167 and 168.
Complete this like a test and mark
yourself with a score once corrected. It should provide feedback on topics we
may need to revise.

our reading sources, you can download a file about the author of Harry Potter,
J k Rowling.
Can you also please let me know what you are
reading at home. If you can’t download the file go to word book online and
research her. To access World book online you need to access it through
scoilnet as I have shown you in school previously.

great way to enjoy STEAM challenges. This challenge is lots of fun for all ages
and you can play on your own or as a team. Use your maths, critical thinking
and problem-solving skills to solve the clues. The game takes about 15mins to play, we recommend keeping
a piece of paper, pen and calculator handy - no magic wands allowed!
