Hi everyone – couldn’t resist this photo of an extremely cute hedgehog!
Google Meet again today 9:30-10:30. We will go through the Maths and English. At the moment I am putting the work on the Blog and Google Classroom to ensure you all have access to it. Hopefully we will be able to do most of it on Google Classroom soon.
Today’s Learning:
Maths
Starter:
As usual, look carefully to see which ones are mental and which are written.
Answers:
L.I. – To be able to identify equivalent fractions.
Today we will be looking at equivalent fractions.
Equivalent fractions are fractions with different numbers representing the same part of a whole.
They have different numerators and denominators, but their fractional values are the same.
For example, think about the fraction 1/2. It means half of something. You can also say that 6/12 is half, and that 50/100 is half.
Here’s a great resource for exploring equivalent fractions:

Qualities of friendship
What is a friend? What do we mean when we call someone a friend?
Why do we need friends? Support, companionship, encouragement, help, advice, love, courage etc.
How do we choose our friends? What do we look for?
Activity
Let’s explore the different qualities of a good friend.
Use the sheet below with different qualities on it.
Qualities of a good friend – Activity sheet cards (1)
Place the quality in a list either ‘friendship quality’ or ‘not friendship quality’.
- Are there any other qualities you think we should add to the list?
- Which are the most important do you think?
Now choose your top three friendship qualities.
You can draw pictures to show these qualities or write the words in different colours and decorate.
Stilling Time
Lie down, close your eyes and relax to some of your favourite music.
