Maths - Decimals

 LO: I can read and write decimals up to three decimal places 


On the first week back to school, Year 6 have been looking at their decimal work. To start the week, we began looking back to Year 5 work (decimals up to 2 decimal places) and refreshed their knowledge of ones, tenths and hundredths. All the children impressed with their knowledge and understanding of this before moving on to representing decimals up to three places. 

Some of the children also worked on some decimal riddles which proved to be great fun!

Well done Year 6 on an excellent start to the year.

South America

 This term the children will be studying South America. Here is a copy of their journey.  During the first part of the lesson, the children recapped the different lines of latitude and longitude they have learnt throughout key stage 2. Then, they compared four different types of maps about South America: relief maps, political maps, tectonic plate maps and language maps.  Finally, the children used their knowledge of longitude and latitude as well as understanding that there is 15 degrees between each line of latitude on a map. Once this was understood, the children identified the latitude and longitude for different places on the world map.
