Today's task - varied fluency questions.

Choose your challenge and show me what you can do!

*** Apologies - I got sidetracked and forgot to upload!

Here are chapters 11 and 12 of Wonder - The Deal and Home.

The VIPERS comprehension and vocabulary task are in the links below. Don't forget to refer back to the text to help you with your comprehension questions.

The answers are also included so you can mark your own work before uploading it.

Try to solve this problem solving challenge.  Use the four operations to see if you can use each of the digits 1 - 9 in a calculation that equals 100.

You can only use each digits once but you can choose the order they are used.

Good luck and have fun!

For today's fun challenge we are taking a journey into Space to find Zods and Zids.  We will be revising our mental strategies to multiply 1 and 2 digit numbers as well as identifying key words in number problems to decide on the strategies we need to use to solve them. 

Use the slides to scaffold your own strategies if you need to before moving onto the independent word problem involving more Zids and Zods.

How many solutions will you find? What strategy did you find most useful? Have fun.

We are continuing with our Circus theme this week with a stunning picture book entitled "Leon and the Place Between".  An online video can be found by following this link...

Here is today's multiplication task: apply your knowledge to solve these reasoning and problem solving questions.

Remember to answer reasoning questions with a sentence which explains what you think is wrong/right about the example given.  If it's incorrect, prove what the correct answer should be.

Choose your level and upload a photo to the website when you are done.

Continue to practise multiplying TO x TO and HTO x TO with the calculations on the attached sheets.  Work for about 20 minutes on them and check regularly that you have the correct answers - the answers are on the later sheets in the file.  Think about where you want to start and, as you would in class, if you want to, start at the Starting Place to do 1 or 2 then move on to Feeling Happy when you are more confident if you want.  If you are finding it tricky then drop in to talk to me at 2pm.  Use the tables square to help you if it would be useful.

Attached is a copy of the information we talked about in the Zoom lesson today, together with two scans of useful parts of the Thesaurus at school - sorry that this isn't brilliantly clear but it's the best it would do!  There's also the persuasive wordbank we created last week.

Today's task is multiplying 3 digit by 2 digit numbers.

When choosing your level of challenge, please have a go at the expected (Q4 - 6) or the greater depth (Q7 - 9), as these involve the method being taught.

If you are having difficulty then you may try the developing (fully expanded approach Q1 - 3).

Remember to upload a photo of your work.

Good luck!

Continue to practise multiplying TO x TO and HTO x TO with the calculations on the attached sheets.  Work for about 20 minutes on them and check regularly that you have the correct answers - the answers are on the second sheet in the file.  Think about where you want to start and, as you would in class, if you want to, start at the Starting Place to do 1 or 2 then move on to Feeling Happy when you are more confident if you want.  If you are finding it tricky then drop in to talk to me at 2pm.
