I hope you all had a nice weekend. This is the week before half term on Friday. I received some wonderful work last week. There was some excellent work on the Olympics, paintings of The Great Wave and videos of pupils making cakes. Keep it up! I will continue to post a daily list of work on Neo. I am posting most of the work on Seesaw so please keep on visiting. Here are today’s activities:
You can remind yourself how to work out equivalent fractions by watching the video and answering the questions on SEESAW. Later on in the week we will be adding and subtracting fractions and you will need the equivalent fractions skill.
I have given you the choice of three photos for your 100 word challenge on SEESAW.
I have placed chapter 11 and 12 of Holes on Neo.
There is a Countdown challenge on SEESAW.
Daily to do’s include:
I have placed a tables challenge on Sumdog. Try to do 10-15 minutes per day. (There’s is also a spelling and grammar section on Sumdog which you can access.)

There is a bank holiday on Friday so this will be the last day of work I will be posting this week.
Remember that we are having a bank holiday on Friday because it is 75 years since the end of the Second World War in Europe on the 8th May 1945 (known as VE Day).
Perhaps you have relatives who lived through those times. If you can find out what those times were like, I’m sure it would be very interesting.
This link will give you a better understanding of why we have the VE Day commemorations.
