Modern Languages
In class we have been developing our existing knowledge of French vocabulary with a focus on pets and animals. With Easter coming this weekend can you identify the French words for the following:
- Happy Easter
- Easter Bunny
- Chocolate egg
- Easter Egg
- Chicken
- Chicks
- Easter basket
- Daffodil
Further opportunities for learning:
- Once you have identified the vocabulary why not create a word search in French using the words you have found? You can bring it into class and give it to someone else to complete.
- Create a mini-book detailing some of the ways Easter is celebrated by the children in France.
- Create a PowerPoint using the vocabulary you have identified to help someone else learn some French vocabulary
Numeracy
In class we have been learning how to simplify improper fractions using the times tables. After we have simplified the fractions we have been learning how to order them on a number line. It would be very beneficial to try this at home independently.
Here is an example of some improper fractions you may use:
Now order the simplified fractions on a number line:
Further opportunities for learning:
- Simplify some of your own examples of improper fractions
- Create your own number lines using the improper fractions you have simplified
- Revise your 7 times table
Easter Eggstravaganza
Thursday 24th March will mark the Woodlands Egg decorating competition. The eggs will be judged on the day and winners for each stage will subsequently be announced. It is a sporting theme this year to coincide with this summer’s Olympics and European Football Championship. I look forward to seeing your eggcellent sporting creations! Please remember to boil your egg before you decorate it!
Why not create a holiday greetings card to send to someone using the French vocabulary you have learned? You could write the whole card in French to make it eggstra special!
Remember you can use your jotter to record any work completed and to show me what you have been learning about at home, I would love to see what you have created! Also if you are unsure of any work you have completed I am always here to help or check how you have gotten on.
