Sorry for the late post but things have been ever so busy in school today. I spoke to the class about what they can do homework wise over the final 2 weeks and promised I would post it on the class blog with links.
http://fivesc.net/ The prompt for this fortnight is simply " ...THE BIG HOLE ..." - what does this make you think of? Can you use your imagination to create 5 sentences based upon this idea? Have a go.
http://100wc.net/ For those children who feel they are ready for a little more challenge in their writing try this link to the final prompt of the year " .... The forest seemed alive as....." - This one is a great chance to use some of the ideas we have discussed in our Brazil enrichment topic. Be creative and explore those sentence openers, connectives and different types of punctuation.
As ever you can bring handwritten sentences into school or email me on [email protected]
In numeracy we have been looking at division (and some multiplication) in order to get us ready to delve into the world of fractions one final time. Have a little look at these links for something to help you explore these areas outside of school.

http://resources.oswego.org/games/fractionflags/fractionflags.html - This game is a great way to explore fractions in a fun and practical way.
Finally can I say to all of the children who regularly complete the homework set without making excuses - THANK YOU. You are taking responsibility for your own learning and this is why YOU are making progress. Parents, a big thank you to you also, for your patience and support throughout the year. Your children do benefit from that little extra time and support you are offering them!
Thanks
Mr Lockey
