Maths
In Maths we will be focusing on number bonds this week. We will be investigating how many ways we can make a range of numbers, using the Part-Whole and Bar Model to help us. We will then use the greater than, less than and equal to symbols to compare number bonds.
Writing
We will be continuing to think about Nibbles the book monster in our writing this week. We will be helping him to pack for his travels by writing a list, writing postcards and creating a story pathway based on what Nibbles did in the story. We will also consider what might happen if Nibbles was to enter our favourite stories.
Topic
In our Topic lessons, we will be continuing to look at old maps of Northwich to see how the town has changed over time. We will also compare Lostock Gralam to Northwich town centre, focusing on both the human and physical geography of both areas.
Homework
- 3 reads
(Read Write Inc book, Book Bag Book and Home Reading Book)
- Maths Challenge – Can you solve problems involving the days of the week? Can you think of your own problem?
This does not need to be recorded and can be completed orally.
E.g. If today is Tuesday, what day will it be seven days from now?
It is Friday tomorrow, what day was it yesterday?
Yesterday was Monday and the day after tomorrow will be Thursday. What
day is it today?
- Spellings – see your slip in your reading diary.
