We have been using the vertical calculation method to subtract 3 digit numbers. We worked out the answers and then checked our answers on a calculator. We had fun learning to use a calculator.
Next week we will move on to subtraction with exchange/borrowing.
We learned a little about the history of Guy Fawkes/fireworks night and then created some art work. The children got to choose if they wanted to use chalk or oil pastel. Some children used the smudging technique to show the movement of the fireworks.
Use the sheet below to practise jumping up in 5s. To do this activity you can – print out the sheet and complete it, say the numbers out loud, or write them on to a piece of paper.
I know how much you like writing stories so I thought you could write a story today. You can either select one of the story ideas below or come up with your own idea!

Later in the term we are going to be developing our drama skills. Today’s task is to create some puppets and then create a little play using them. You will need to think about what your characters will say to each other. Will they have accents?
A really easy way to make puppets is by creating tubes and then sticking a picture of your character to them. Watch the short video below to see some sheep puppets I have made.
I hope you all have a great day!
