Happy New Year! We hope that you were able to have a happy and restful holiday; it has been lovely to see you all again this week.
We have started to look at the concept of division in Maths and used manipulatives to practise sharing things into equal groups. You might want to have a go at sharing some items at home, such as pasta or toys, into equal groups using the 2, 5 and 10 times table. We’re setting some home learning for mymaths to practise some division challenges. Well done to those of you who had a go at the optional task over the Christmas break.
You may like to play an online division game to help practise dividing: https://www.ictgames.com/mobilePage/doggyDivision/index.html
We have also started our new Literacy text – Lila and the Secret of Rain. We have enjoyed reading this traditional tale and have talked about how it is similar/different to the traditional tales we read earlier this year.
You may enjoy listening to the story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04gRXlPnEeo or you could mute/pause the video to read it yourselves.
