Friday 9th July 2021
Hello Year 6, I hope you are doing well at home. Not long left until you are back in school.
Yesterday we were introduced to the area of a triangle. Today we are going to dive in and get a better understanding of an area of a triangle.
Thursday 8th July 2021
Today we are going to be focusing on the area of a triangle.
Wednesday 7th July
Today we will be focusing on area and perimeter.
Tuesday 6th July 2021
Today we are going to be focusing on Shape with the same area.
Today we are looking at Reflections.
Please watch this video
REMEMBER - Reflection is a type of transformation. To reflect an object, you need a mirror line. When a shape is reflected, its size does not change - the image just appears 'flipped'.
Today we will be looking at Translations.
Please watch this video
REMEMBER - In maths, translated means 'to move'. When translating a shape, it moves but its appearance doesn't change.
Today we will continue to look at Geometry, but extend this to all Four Quadrants.
Please watch this video
REMEMBER - the first co-ordinate always represents the x-axis, the second co-ordinate represents the y-axis.
If you need more practice, watch this short video to have another think about co-ordinates in the first quadrant

Monday 1st March
It's the last week of home learning! We are really looking forward to seeing you all back at school next week.
Today we are going to look at Geometry - The First Quadrant.
Please watch this video
REMEMBER - The x axis is the horizontal line, the y axis is the vertical line. The FIRST co-ordinate represents the X AXIS, the SECOND co-ordinate represents the Y AXIS.
If you're finding this a bit tricky, watch the video and have a go at the quiz on the link below
Finish the week by working through this fractions unit on Seneca
Click the link, then Start Assignment
Today we will recap multiplying fractions.
Don't be scared! It's easier than you might think
Adding fractions with different denominators
You need to change the denominator so make them the same before you add.
Remember, whatever you do to the bottom you do to the top
Fractions recap
Today we will be looking back at how to add fractions with the same denominator. It is vital you practice this in preparation for whatever secondary school you may be going to.
Monday 22nd February
Welcome back Year 6. We really hope to see you all back in school soon.

Here is today's work
Fractions on a number line
Watch video 2.
https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-6/week-9-number-fractions/
Using a number line to show fractions can be a very helpful way to represent how a whole is divided equally into parts.
Remember, the denominator shows us how many parts there are in total and the numerator tells us how many parts we are talking about.
The BBC again has some great advice if today's work is a bit tricky.
Mixed numbers to improper fractions
Watch video 1.
https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-6/week-9-number-fractions/
Multiply the denominator of the fractional part by the whole number, and add the result to the numerator.
For example, suppose you want to convert the mixed number
to an improper fraction. First, multiply 3 by 5 and add 2:
(3 · 5) + 2 = 17
Use this result as your numerator, and place it over the denominator you already have.
Place this result over the denominator:
The BBC has got some great ideas to help
Converting improper fractions to mixed numbers.
To convert an improper fraction into a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. Write the whole number answer, then make a fraction from the remainder and the original denominator and add it to the whole number.
