Maths and Numeracy
In maths and numeracy we have started looking at patterns and sequences of numbers. We have learnt that a pattern of numbers can be a growing or repeating pattern where as sequences have to be a growing pattern.
Repeating pattern: 4, 7, 9, 4, 7, 9, 4, 7, 9, 4, 7, 9, 4, 7, 9
Growing pattern (sequence): 5, 11, 17, 23, 29, 35, 41, 48 (Rule +6)
For this week’s maths and numeracy homework write down three repeating patterns and four growing patterns (sequences).
You can make the sequences as simple or complex as you like. Could you challenge yourself to use fractions or decimal numbers?
Learning Across the Curriculum
In class we are challenging ourselves to design, budget and produce healthy snacks. Part of being successful is producing the food in a clean and hygienic way. For homework, please write down five key things to remember to do to keep food safe and hygienic.
Please find attached activities children experience in class daily and are asked to practise at home.
This term we are focusing on the yellow rainbow section –

Please choose 1 chilli challenge each week at home, complete it in your jotter and return it each week!

Maths and numeracy
In numeracy this week we have been looking at converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions. We have used visuals to help us understand as well as learning how to convert between the two. Please convert these improper fractions into mixed numbers.
Learning Across the Curriculum
Next week in class we will be looking at planning, shopping for and creating a healthy meal or snack. Please write down a recipe of something you enjoy eating at home. Try to choose something which is healthy so that we can share them with the class.
You could use cookbooks, the internet or apps to find recipes as well as talking to family members.
