World Book Day

As part of our celebrations for World Book day this year, we are asking the children to think creatively and use their imaginations to answer the following question:

Where does your reading take you?

We could even win a prize as good as £10,000 of books and a library makeover! Here are some ideas below, you can find even more on the World Book Day link below:

Create a mural, poster. Write a poem, rap or song. Make a video, trailer, large book. Perform a play, song or dance.

We can not wait to see your wonderful ideas and share some of them on the website!

Maths – Area, perimeter and volume

The shapes for this activity are drawn on their homework sheet in their homework book.

Squared number = number timsed by itself. E.g. 4 squared = 4 x 4 = 16

Squared numbers help us find the area of squares as we know that the length x width = area. Using that information can you find out the area of these different shapes.

The perimeter is the distance around a two-dimensional shape. Example: the perimeter of this rectangle is 3+7+3+7 = 20.

Cubed number = number timsed by itself 3 times. E.g. 5 cubed= 5 x 5 x 5 = 125

Cubed numbers help us find the volume of a cube as we know that length x width x height = volume.

Using that information can you find out the volume of these different shapes.
