After learning about the layers of the earth last week, we took a more detailed look at our Earth’s crust today. Learning that it is made up of the continental crust and the oceanic crust and what makes up these layers (mostly different types of rock). Here is the way they have captured their learning this week. Next week we are looking at what surrounds the Earth, our atmosphere (and believe it or not, that’s also in layers!).
Just look at the smiles, it says it all. Well deserved winners this week and some fantastic comments about all their achievements. Well done everyone.
Some more fab fraction learning today. This lesson was very practical and the children really grappled with the process of finding fractions of an amount. Towards the end it was clear they were really starting to get the hang of it. I can’t wait to test their recall tomorrow and move their learning forward. Well done again everyone.
Well done to those who have taken part in our challenges so far – you’ve done a fantastic job! Here is the challenge for day 4! There are 3 different levels for you to choose from depending on whether or not you want a challenge!
Remember to send your pictures of the things you find to your teachers or to [email protected]
We can’t wait to see what you find on your scavenger hunt!

Year 3/4
Today, we introduced the children to their next genre of writing. To kick start their learning, the children were faced with a WAGOLL in which they had to find and identify features they already knew. I was blown away by their hard work and also presentation of their group work. Very impressive class 10 keep being awesome!
Fractions are proving to be a hit in class 10 and the children are getting very excited about their learning. It’s so great to see then all working hard and collaboratively and their confidence is growing massively. Super proud guys, well done.
What does 100 look like?
Choose a random object from your house and count out 100! Will you choose to count 100 pasta pieces, 100 pieces of cereal of even 100 socks!? Be as creative as you want to be and let’s see what 100 looks like!
If you can, put your 100 items in a bag and fetch them to show your teachers! Remember you can always send photographs to your teachers or to [email protected]
Some more examples might include:
We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Choose one (or more!) of the challenges below to complete at home this week! Don’t forget to get the whole family involved! If your child is in EYFS, please choose some of the activities from the ‘Year 1 and 2’ document 🙂
Remember to send any pictures to [email protected] or to your teachers. We can’t wait to see all of the maths around your home!
Work together to see how many maths words you can think of for each letter of the alphabet! I’ll let you into a secret … J is a very tricky letter so I’ll be super impressed if anyone thinks of a maths word starting with J!
Please send your responses to [email protected] and / or bring them in to show your teachers!
We can’t wait to see how many words you come up with and who has the most creative words!
