Some suggestions:
Maths -
Take a look a Big Maths at Home. The children use the same login details as they do for the main Big Maths website each Friday. When they login each child will be directed to tasks matched with their personal next steps.
Literacy-
You could write your own winter story. Challenge yourself to include openers, punctuation and connectives. If you would like to, you will have the opportunity to share your story with our class when you return to school.

Digital Technology- AI Snowman Challenge

It has been great to hear the enthusiasm to work on our Big Maths targets at home. We now have access to a brand new website called Big Maths at Home . The children use the same login details as they do for the main Big Maths website each Friday. When they login each child will be directed to tasks matched with their personal next steps.
Counting-
I can understand numbers with different decimal places.
Remember to:
order the numbers by their whole numbers
then, if they have the same whole number, order by the tenths digit
then, if they have the same tenths digit, order by the hundredths digit
then, if they have the same hundredths digit, order by the thousandths digit
Learn Its- Times table of your choice.
It's Nothing New- I can divide whole numbers and decimals by 1000.
Remember to:
move the digits three places to the right
remember that this makes the number 1000 times smaller
Calculation- I can combine 2 or more Coin Facts to solve division
Remember to:
write out your full Coin Card for 2d number
add coin pieces until you have found the target number
find the total amount of 'lots of' used
