Thursday 7th May

Maths:

Miss Hughes’ group – L.O. To reason and problem solve with equivalent fractions

Did you find a pattern/rule to finding equivalent fractions? This is our last session on equivalent fractions and you will need to use the knowledge you’ve gained to answer some reasoning and problem solving questions today. I have put the link for yesterday’s video below so you can watch this again to help you if you need it.

I have attached Bronze, Silver and Gold activities for you to try. Remember, you don’t need to do all of the sheets. Do the one you are most confident with and then challenge yourself to try the next level.

English: LO: To write an acrostic poem using 'shape poetry'.

Hello, I'm one of Miss Hughes' kittens. My name is Lucky and you have probably seen lots of pictures of me during one of Miss Hughes' 'Kitten Updates'. She gets really excited when she speaks about me and my brother, Tom. She loves us so much!

Miss Hughes has been working from home for so long now and we have been watching what she gets up to everyday and this morning, I decided to write an acrostic poem about what it has been like for Miss Hughes during the 'lockdown'. I hope you like it. 

Your task today is to create an acrostic poem using the word 'RAINBOW' and present it in the shape of one too! 

Below you will see my plan, I made notes of some words that I could use linked to Miss Hughes' day/life that started with each letter of 'rainbow'. This was to help me put these into sentences. 

As you can see my poem rhymes. Yours doesn't have to rhyme, but it would be great if it did. 

Have fun, 

Love Lucky... Meow! x
