Good morning!

 

Now before we start our work, it's important to warm our brains up. For Begum's Beasts, I want you guys practising your 6x tables today so please click here. I will give you a shoutout on our maths page tomorrow if you email me your score.

 

For fire dragons- Please click here and pick a times table of your choice. I will give you a shoutout on our maths page tomorrow if you email me your score.

 

For top banaynays, please try the Countdown mind boggler below. Now, I don't expect you to get the answer spot on, but whoever gets the closest in the class gets a shoutout tomorrow on the class page! I will also reveal the method that gets the correct answer. A tip: Don't be afraid to add numbers together before multiplying and also don't be afraid to use division to help you find the answer...

 

Yesterday, amazingly, Cassius managed to get dead on 535.

This was his method:

 

100 divided by 25 = 4

50-4 = 46

46 x 10 = 460

460 + 75 = 535

 

Well done, Cass!

 

While we are all self-isolating and not in school, I thought it would be a good time to recap some things we have looked at over the course of the year so far. Today we will be revisiting adding 3 digit numbers using the game below. This is something we regularly have to face in Maths (and life) so is a good skill to look at again.
