It has been great to hear from you about your suggestions for films to watch, keep your suggestions coming.

Here are some of your home learning tasks for this week:

Hexagons/Semi-circles/Pentagons = Converting fractions into decimals

You will need a calculator for this task, you can get one on your computer/mobile/tablet  if you don’t have one at home. Some questions you may be able to work out in your head but you can use a calculator. Read each question carefully as you are not just writing the numerator with a 0. before it. Look closely at the denominator to see what you need to divide by.   How to convert fractions into decimals 11th June

P6 Buddy Story Task

Create a story for your P1 buddy. Include you and your buddy as a character (if you can remember their name). Make it suitable for a 4/5 year old, for example it could be an adventure you go on together outside of school or in school. Try to include interesting verbs, adjectives and emotions. Once complete I can print these out and keep them in school for a time when it will be possible for them to be given to your buddies.

P5 Story Writing Task

Create a story of your choice, it could include a tragedy, a quest or be a comedy or a story of rags to riches. You can choose any type you want. If you need some inspiration see the below files. Your story should have a paragraph that introduces the story and characters/setting, a middle which builds up to the main event and then an ending that brings the story to a close. Try to include lots of detail and make it interesting.
