Home learning (12.11.21)

 

Below you will find the tasks to complete at home this week. If you are struggling finding time or a quiet place, please speak to your teacher as soon as possible.

 

Remember, your reading records will be checked on Monday and everything else on Friday.

 

Now:

(4)  Reading - recorded in your reading log with ONE quality comment (Hand in Monday)

(5)  TTRS - Log on and complete 20 sessions (Remember this is checked on a Thursday)

For support with these tasks we have uploaded some videos on our Year 6 Video Channel to help; some from us and some from our colleagues in other schools.

 

There is a quick, simple (no maths detail) explanation there for how to simplify fractions and how to change fractions to decimals. There is also a semi-colon video, if you scroll down a bit.

 

Pre-learning information

You might find some helpful tasks, activities or information that might help prepare you for your learning in the week ahead too. Have a look at what we are doing and the resources below.

 

Being a Mathematician

This week we are looking at adding and subtracting fractions (and mixed numbers) with different denominators.

 

Try watching this to set you up to be ready to start from Monday.

Adding Fractions with Different Denominators

Before you come to this, you need to be confident making new equivalent fractions - we did this last week being a mathematician so you should have that confidence!

Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions

n case you want a reminder of how to change mixed numbers to improper fractions, watch this very short explanation. You will need this for later in the week!
