This week we are continuing with the fantastic text "Wild boy". The link to the text can be found here https://www.lovereading4kids.co.uk/extract/9408/Wild-Boy-by-Rob-Lloyd-Jones.html A printout may be useful for the session (we are focusing on pages 11-15).
We are revising our skills in multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000 this week through Tarsia puzzles. Please print as many as you wish and keep each puzzle separate when you cut them out. Once you have found all of the matching calculations and solutions, the puzzle shape can be glued into your books. The answers are included too so no peeking!
Here are the options for today's home learning.
Option 1: Number crunching - practise your long multiplication to become more confident with the method.
Option 2: If you are already secure with the method, try these reasoning and problem solving challenges.
For both options, choose a level that challenges you.
Continue to practise multiplying TO x TO with the calculations on the attached sheet. As explained before, you don't need to do every single one! 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.
Isolation can be tough for lots of different reasons.
Why not brighten someone's day by writing them a poem? It can be about anything you like!

Today's home learning: Multiplying 2 digits by 2 digits.
To reinforce the learning, please have a go at one of the worksheets attached.
As this is a new skill, I would suggest choosing the developing or expected level and only moving onto the greater depth if you are really confident and comfortable.
