Happy half term break!

There won't be any official home learning set for you in the half term break. If you would like something to do, please look back over the last few weeks and revisit some of the spellings and maths games that we've put on the blog before.


We have also noticed that some children are still finding it hard to tell the time to the nearest 5 minutes so if you'd like to practise that, here is some information to help.

As so many children are familiar with digital clocks we have tried to relate the time to the way you would say it digitally. 

So if you saw these clocks...



You would say that the times were

9:25    'Nine twenty five'
10:15   'Ten fifteen'
11:40    'Eleven forty'


You could also use this game to help...

We'd love it if you kept reading every day too!

Mrs. Yeo has found a free book club you can join if you like, with quizzes, book recommendations and author interviews! Have a look at this link here...

Have a lovely break and we'll see you on Monday 1st June!
