Maths:  We are looking at fractions.

Task 1 Find the answer to:

1/7 of 49=           1/7 of 56=           1/6 of 18=           1/6 of 12=

1/6 of 42=           1/7 of 42=           1/7 of 14=           1/6 of 60=

Here are some websites that you may find useful!

Task 2: Coin collection (1/10) – Ask your child to find one 10p coin.  Ask them to draw around it ten times, colour some and them write what fraction of £1 the coloured set is, e.g. 40p is 4/10 or £1 or 90p is 9/10 of £1.

Task 3: Coin collection (1/5) – Ask your child to fine one 20p coin.  Ask them to draw around it five times, colour some and them write what fraction of £1 the coloured set is, e.g. 40p is 2/5 or £1 or 80p is 4/5 of £1.

Task 4: Sorting objects – ask your child to sort 20 small identical objects, such as 1p coins, grapes, sweets into two equal groups, then into four equal groups, then five equal groups and then 10 equal groups.  They record the number in the groups, e.g. ½ of 20=10, ¼ of 20 = 5 etc ask them to note when a group or groups have the same number.

Science:

Design and make a musical instrument that can change pitch and can make a loud sound and quiet sound.  Use junk material you have been collecting.  Remember to make your instrument as good looking as it sounds.  Your instruments don’t need to be handed in until Monday 3^rd October to give you time to work over the weekend.
