Wednesday 19th May – Numeracy Tasks
Here is today’s Board Number, please complete in the maths jotter that is in your home learning pack. Remember you do not have to do the extra, this is simply an extra challenge.
Once you have finished, please use a calculator to correct or ask someone at home to correct your work. Remember, you can also use the inverse operation to correct your work too. For example 28472 x 6, once you have the answer, to use the inverse operation to correct, simply carry out a division calculation using your answer divided by 6 (the answer to this division calculation should be 28472).
