Good morning Wrekin class!

I hope you are all well and feeling safe and happy. I will set your work today in maths and then a small project about VE Day – which hopefully you will be celebrating in some way tomorrow! I am setting fewer subjects so you can focus on understanding VE Day – the government thinks it is very important so dedicated tomorrow to it (Bank Holiday). It’s just a shame that we can’t hold street parties and parades. If you know somebody in your family or close to your family who was alive on VE Day, why not give them a call and ask them about it!

So, your links today:

• Maths – for Year 5 is perimeter and for Year 6 is more adding and subtracting fractions
• For your other work today, please write a report or fact-file about VE Day. Think about why it was important, how it felt, what people did and what happened after it! Here are some places you can find out more: Newsround, Primary Facts, Imperial War Museum. There will also be programmes on TV and catch-up to look at too.

I will not be setting work on VE Day/Bank Holiday, but if you feel inspired, please continue to work on your VE Day project.

Best wishes, enjoy finding out about VE Day!

Mr F
