Maths Homework

This week, we would like you to look at pages 60 & 61.

For Year 1's this looks at measuring time. Understanding how time is measured helps work out slower and quicker times and whether times are earlier or later than each other. Try timing your child doing different tasks and compare the times that it took. Also reinforce how 60 seconds make up a minute and 60 minutes make up an hour.

Below is a link to some games to help support these ideas:

For Year 2's this looks at 3D shapes. This focuses on the names of the shapes the children should know and their mathematical properties - faces, vertices and edges.

Don't forget to keep reading at home and do the next page in your comprehension homework books.

Have an amazing weekend!

Much love
