Maths
Your maths task today focuses on finding fractions of amounts. We have done this in school - remember to divide by the denominator and then multiply by the numerator. I have attached the song to help you! The attached sheet has learning reminders so you can tune your brain into the topic and 2 practice sheets - mild and hot. As usual there are ‘A bit stuck..?’ sheets for you to try with an adult if you need extra practice and some questions to check your understanding.

Challenge
I don’t think the Harry Potter books ever told us the spell for creating rainbows. I know lots of you have created rainbows and put them in your windows to support our key workers. Why don’t you try this potion which makes rainbows beautifully! You can use Skittles or M&Ms, and the beautiful rainbows you will create are magical! Watch some children carrying out the experiment at https://youtu.be/A9BOHvThsO0 and follow the instructions at https://www.funwithmama.com/easy-skittles-rainbow-kids-candy-science-experiment/ to create your own rainbows. Send me a picture or a video of the rainbows you have made.
