This is not how we would write out sums to find the answer so don’t write them this way in your jotter. Use place value, carrying and decomposition (borrowing) to find your answers.

I’ll post the answers to these tomorrow or you can send me your answers at:

Your spelling words for this week are:

process, resources, soldier, technique, weight, proposition, Saturday, stationary, texture, women

Today I would like you to organised your words into alphabetical order and then add prefixes or suffixes to make word families.

Example

process – processing, processed, processor, procession, reprocess

After 19 chapters we are now finished, “How to Train your Dragon.”

I’ve assigned you some more books in Scholastic Books. Some are shorter but there is one longer novel that I think that you will enjoy.

I’m also going to give you the option to do some short comprehension exercises. I’m going to post three a day but you can choose to do as many of them as you wish. I’ll post the answers tomorrow.

Blue Light comprehension

Deep Space comprehension

Virtual comprehension

 

May is the month of Mary.

Today let us say the Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

Now lets think about the different situations in which you could provide help to someone.

Read each of these situations and answer showing the ways in which you could help.

a) If someone was feeling lonely, I could….

b) If someone was feeling unwell, I could….

c) If I accidentally deleted half of my work, I could….

d) If I saw someone being badly treated, I could….

e) If I saw an animal in distress, I could….

As it’s Tuesday why don’t we follow the further adventures of, “Mi Vida Loca”

Remember you can still choose another task from your updated learning grid and there are other tasks on Sumdog, StudyLadder, FirstNews and Scholastic Books.

You can email me any of your work at:
