Hello

How was your weekend?

Tomorrow is the last day I’ll be posting on the blog. From then on, everything will be on google classroom.

Maths

This week we will be working on fractions. Have a look at the picture and see if you can work out what fraction of the rectangle each shape is worth. Start by looking for halves and quarters and seeing how far you can go. It might help to cut up a piece of paper to see the shapes.
