year 6 homework

Homework has been given out today for grammar and maths. 

Maths is looking at estimation. The concept is really important in year 6 so they can see whether their actual calculation ' looks right'. So this wee they are asked to find the right answer based on estimation.

For example 3.14 x 65.8 = If we needed to estimate we might calculate 3 x 60 or if we felt able may do 3 x 66

If we have 32 x 19 we may calculate 32 x 20 ( which is the same as 32 x 10 + 32 x 10)

I have offered children a homework workshop on Friday lunchtime if they need any additional support- anyone welcome.

 

Grammar is looking at verbs - those great ' doing ' words and I am confident they will find this consolidation easy. 2 pages rather than 3.
