Good Morning,
I hope you are all well and having fun this week.
Below are some learning activity ideas for today.
English
| Learning Objective/Focus: | To write a list using commas. | |
| Main input (explanation) | When we write a list of more than two items we separate them using a comma (,) The PowerPoint attached may help. | |
| Activities | Look at today’s phoneme and complete the activities on the slide. | |
| Practice writing a comma. Read the following sentence. I like to sing and skip and jump and run. How could this sentence be improved? Talk about what you need to do. Now write the improved sentence. | ||
| Write a list of things you like. Use a comma to separate each item in the list. | ||
| Extension Activity Ideas | Look for commas in books. Are they only used for lists? |
Maths
| Learning Objective/Focus: | To subtract 1 digit numbers from 2 digit numbers crossing 10 by partitioning. | |
| Main input (explanation) | Bridging to 10 is used when subtracting a single digit number from a double digit whose total is less than 10. To do this you need to partition the lower number so you can subtract to 10. Then subtract the remaining. For example 13 – 7 7 can be partitioned into 3 and 4. If we subtract 3 from 13 we get 10. Then we subtract the remaining 4 to get 6. So 13-7 = 6 13-3=10 10-4=6 Use the PowerPoint attached to help you. | |
| Activities | Use equipment to help you complete these subtractions. There are 11 sheep in a pen. The farmer takes 1 out. How many sheep are left in the pen? There are 13 cars in a car park. 3 cars leave how many cars are left? There are 14 cakes in the bakers. Eva buys some cakes. There are 10 left. How many cakes did Eva buy? | |
| Use a 10 frame and a number line to help you find the answers to the below. Example: First there were 13 jam tarts. Then 5 were eaten. Now there are 8 jam tarts. 12- 5 = 17 – 8 = 16 – 7 = | ||
| Use <, > or = to make the below statements correct. 17- 5 12-5 14-4 18-8 11-7 11-4 How do you know? | ||
| Extension Activity Ideas | Tara is working out 12-4 using a number line her answer is 9. What has Tara done wrong? Can you explain her mistake? What should the answer be? |
