Elm Class Learning Tuesday 19th May 2020
Welcome to Tuesday! Looks like we are set for another beautifully sunny day! As always, I would love to see anything you have been working on!
Spellings: Today’s prefixes I would like you to focus on are: re (without a hyphen) for example- redo and sub, for example- submarine. Can you find out what these prefixes mean? How do they change the meaning of the word? Can you collect a list of sub and re words and practice these?
Arithmetic: This week, we are going to practice long division. We have done this plenty of times in class, so you should have a good idea of the method, the key with this is to remember to write down the 2, 4, 5 and 10 times table of the number you are dividing by first, this will really help you later on with the calculation. Remember to also check your working back for any calculation errors. I have attached a video to explain this if you need a recap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvgV5REvDb4
1750 ÷ 50 =
9072 ÷ 36 =
3200 ÷ 64=
Grammar: Today we are going to continue using prepositions. A preposition is a word that tells you where or when something is in relation to something else.
Examples of prepositions include words like after, before, on, under, inside and outside. Can you describe objects around your house or in your garden in relation to others? Can you use as many different prepositions as you can think of? For example: The dog likes to lay next to the sofa. The trampoline is in the middle of the garden.
English: Read chapter 20 (Spooky Cott) and chapter 21 (Back to school) of Goodnight Mister Tom. We are going to finish the book tomorrow!
Maths: Have a look at the list of activities attached; what will you have a go at challenge yourself to today?
Japan Activities for the week!
Our weekly focus for this week is: Round up Research!
This week I would like you to use your time to find out anything else about Japan which you haven’t found out yet! You could revisit any of the tasks from the previous weeks which you didn’t manage to complete or research your own interests!
Feel free to present this information in any way that you would like.
Missing you all,
Miss Coates.
