This week in maths we have been looking at fractions. We have been working on different aspects of fractions like simplifying, equivalent fractions and fraction identification. We have also been looking at how fractions relate to percentages and decimals.

We have been discussing relationships and respect for everyone.

We have started working on athletics in PE with Mr Cox and have been carrying out sprints and both standing and running long jumps.
