Primary 4/3 – Thursday 30 April 2020

🌈 Good Morning Boys and Girls 🌈

It has been great seeing all of your work and how creative you have all been over the last few days.  The character profiles, news reports, not to mention the beautiful poems on your Super Heroes – from Grans to Mums – I’ve loved them all.  Mrs Graham and I are so proud of all you have been doing at home.  Please keep sending/posting your work as it really brightens our days.

Can you believe that it is the last day of April and tomorrow we begin a new month?

Let’s start the day with our morning prayer.  🙏

I hope that you have been remembering to say our Guardian Angel prayer, especially at this time, so that they will keep us safe and well.  Here it is if you can’t remember it.

Angel of God, my Guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here;
Ever this day, be at my side
To light and guard
To rule and guide.  
Amen

Health and Well-being

Let’s take time out of our day to keep active.  You have been given lots of different types of exercises to do.   Free choice today – what will you do?  Oti Mabuse, Joe Wicks, Go Noodle or for all the football fans you might like to take part in this – all you need is a football! ⚽️🥅

Literacy

Here’s a little starter to get our brains working.   find a word 30 April

There’s no need to print just answer in your jotter.   At the bottom of the activity you will see that it is asking you to find some of the parts of speech we were revising last week.  See if you can remember them.  Can you remember what an adverb is?  We will look at those tomorrow.

Spelling

If we were back in class we spend around 15 minutes going over our spelling words.   If there are any of your words you are still unsure of remember to practise them.  Take time to use the strategy that helps you.  Remember people use different ways to learn new words.

Reading

Make sure you read today for at least 10 minutes.  Find a quiet time and concentrate really hard on your book.  Use a dictionary if you don’t know the meaning of a word.  Reading expands your vocabulary and helps you in so many different ways in literacy.

Numeracy

For each word problem, underline the key information, write down the sums and work out the answers. The problems may involve adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing.  Remember to show your workings in your jotter.  There are two steps Take your time and read the questions carefully.

  1. On Sunday I spent 98 minutes on my art project, and 35 minutes on my numeracy homework. On Thursday evening I spent a total of 100 minutes on my homework. What is the difference between the amount of homework I did on Sunday and Thursday evening?
  2. Dad drives a truck. Last week he drove 250 kilometres on Monday and 145 on Tuesday. This week Dad drove 150 kilometres in total. What is the difference in kilometres between this week and last week?
  3. One watch costs £1 and I bought two. If I paid with a £5 note, how much change did I receive?
  4. *I need to buy enough whiteboards for 95 students and there are 10 in a pack. When the packs arrive 4 whiteboards are damaged. How many whiteboards are undamaged?
  5. *At the fabric shop I bought 125 metres of orange fabric and 50 metres of yellow fabric. I have used 13 metres of the orange fabric and 12 metres of yellow fabric. How many metres of fabric do I have left in total?
  6. I got £35.00 for my birthday. I spent £10.00 on Saturday and £15.50 on Sunday. How much spending money have I got left?

Primary 3 – Try to do at least 3 questions.  Primary 4 – Try them all.

Challenge: Questions 4 and 5 have three steps.

Keep practising your tables and remember if you have got time you can carry out a task from your grid.  Remember you have Sumdog , First News and Study Ladder too!

Make sure you remember to take plenty of breaks and drink plenty of water.  Well done for all your hard work today.  Remember tonight we say a big thank you to our NHS workers.
