Multiplication 4th June 2014
We have started to learn about multiplication. You really need to know how to skip count in 2s, 5s, and 10s forwards and backwards. If you can't do this to 100 you need to practise at home.
e.g. 2, 4, 6, 8 ... 5, 10, 15, 20 ... 100, 90, 80, 70 ...
If you can skip count you need to start working on your times tables. Start with your 2x (which is just like your doubles) then 5x and 10x.
Studyladder has some good practice activities. The link is on the class blog. Otherwise practice writing them out and saying them out loud. Get an adult to test you on them. You can buy practice books from bookshops and probably The Warehouse.

2D shapes - draw and label the following shapes: circle, oval, rectangle, triangle, diamond, pentagon, hexagon, octagon. Can you find out the names for 7, 9 and 10 sided 2D shapes?

Home Learning Challenge 15 March
Read, draw and write - Read the whole paragraph before you start drawing.
The little girl in the long, striped dress is sitting on a tall chair at a long table. In the middle of the table is a big three-layered cake that has five flickering candles on top. Above the table are different shaped balloons hanging from the ceiling. On the floor by the girl's chair is a large box with a colourful bow. At the far end of the table there is a huge, black spider wearing a party hat with streamers coming out the top. On the wall behind the table there is a banner that says 'Happy Birthday Incy Wincy'.
1. Draw a picture showing what you have just read.
2. Write a list of all the adjectives (describing words) in the story, e.g. long.
3. Write a list of all the nouns (naming words) in the story, e.g. girl, chair.
4. Write the next 5 sentences for the story. (What might be in the box? What type of cake is it? Will any more guests come to the party? Will they play any games?)
Home Learning Challenge - 2 March
Questions - Have an adult read you a book and then write a question starting with each of the following words: Who? What? When? Where? Why? and How? Remember your why and how questions shouldn't have a simple one word answer.
Interview- Write 5-6 questions that you could ask a family member about when they were a child. It could be about where they lived, toys, games, sports, holiday, pets, jobs, or favourite things. These are just some ideas, I'm sure you can think of some other things. Once you have written your questions then you can interview (ask) the person your questions and record their answer.
Maths - 'Make 10' is a fun card game to play. With a pack of cards take out all the picture cards and deal each player 5 cards. The remaining cards go into a pile in the centre. If you have any pairs that add up to 10 you then put them down in front of you. It is then played like fish where you ask another player for a card you need to make 10, e.g. if you have a 4 you will ask for a 6. If they don't have it you take a card from the pile in the centre. Winner has the most pairs at the end.
Home Learning Challenge - 25 February
Making 10 or 20 - How many different ways can you make 10 by adding 2 numbers? How about making 20?
Statistics - Can you complete a statistical investigation at home? Remember you need to create a tally chart, collect your data and present it as a bar or pictograph. Some ideas could be ... Number of rooms in your house, different type of toys you have, insects you find in the garden, a favourite thing for your family e.g. Colour, food, etc (you could include grandparents, Aunties, Uncles, cousins, etc).
Story - Can you write an adventure story with a pirate and a map? You could always try a 10 minute Quickwrite, and see how many words you can write.
