Pyramids – cubes and cylinders have a go too if you want!

Grab some dice.( If you don’t have dice, write numbers 1-10 on a piece of paper.) Roll the dice to get 2 numbers. Or throw a wee rolled up piece of paper on your number grid to select 2 numbers. You then have the 2 multiples you need.  I want you to make an array out of your multiples. We have done this lots and lots of times in class. It doesn’t matter what you use,  pasta, small toys, buttons, counters or you could cut up bits of paper into shapes. Build your array and write 4 fact family sentences to explain your groups.

eg, 4×3=12      3×4=12         12 divided by 4=3      12 divided by 3 = 4

Here’s a video reminder about arrays.

This week continue with another unit of your workbook. Some of the words may appear in the Sumdog Spelling Challenge. Choose 4 words from your unit to use in 4 sentences and try to use VCOP to make them interesting. You could also use the Active Spelling method to practise some or all of the words you have selected to learn from your unit or the irregular words list.

Play charades with your words. When someone has guessed the word, spell it.
Write your words in colourful bubble writing.
Write your spelling words forwards and then backwards and then spell them out loud forwards.
Make a square of 4 rows of dots with 4 dots in each row. Before taking a turn, the player must spell a spelling word. If the word is correct, he/ she connects two dots. When a player forms a square, he can write his/her initials in the box. Player with most squares at the end wins.
