Hi
Hope you are having a great weekend.
Home Learning for Week beginning 19.3.18
Reading
Reading from group novel. There is no additional reading task this week so that there is more time to focus on spelling task.

Numeracy
This week’s focus is time. A good website for practising time is http://www.visnos.com/demos/clock which shows analogue and digital time together to make connections. The children do not need to know the exact minutes for analogue time but it is useful to learn 5 past, 10 past etc. not just quarter to and quarter past. Time is learned better with practical situations so can you ask your child examples of how long it will take to get to an event or how long event lasted e.g. if we leave at 5.30 for swimming which starts 6.15, how long do we have. Please emphasise that there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour as they are used to most measurements being 100.
Learning across the Curriculum
Unfortunately, this is the last week of learning about the Vikings. Thank you for all the resources you shared with the class. Please ask your child to collect it back by the end of the week and finish anything they have been working on.
Have a good week!
Kind Regards
Louise
