Hello Year 6! 😊

A huge well done to you all for your fantastic home learning this week! πŸ‘πŸ‘Œ Yet again, we have been so impressed with how hard you have been working 😊 Below you will find the timetable for Week 4 – remember that this is just a guide and you can be flexible with how you structure your learning!

In English, we will be continuing our work on non-chronological reports about pandas. The work that you have sent us from this topic already this week has been fantastic!

In Maths lessons, we will be looking at percentages. As with last week, some of the maths activities are labelled 1 star or 2 star. The 1 star activity is more straightforward than the 2 star; choose which activity you would like to do depending on how confident you feel. If you are super-confident, why not try the challenge activities?! ⭐
