Wednesday January 27th

Good morning – I can’t wait to see you at 9.15 for Maths and 11.00 for phonics. Don’t forget to go to Mrs Smith’s assembly at 2.20pm, I know she’s looking forward to seeing you all too.

Maths

Comparing Numbers

Today we are going to be learning how to compare larger numbers. Look carefully at the picture below.

Compare the two numbers. Which number is bigger? How do you know? ‘Let’s Learn’ below will help explain.

Next we’re going to compare three numbers.    37, 22 and 29

TOP TIP! First compare the tens in all three numbers.  Second compare the ones where the tens are the same.

Now place these numbers in order from smallest to largest and vice versa.

Finally, have a go at the guided practice questions below and then complete pages 11 – 14 in your Maths No Problem book.

Maths challenge time

These place-value challenges are designed for those children who are able to complete their workbook job independently. You do not need to record your answers, just have a discussion.  The question ‘How do you know that?’  is a brilliant starting place.

PE

Can you make your own traditional tale keep fit session?  

Design it and then spend a minute doing each bit.  You could ask your grown up to try it out too!  

Here is an example but I’m sure you’ll have lots of ideas! You don’t have to write it out,  you can just draw quick pictures on a piece of paper or your whiteboard to remind you what to do.
