Good morning superstars!
I hope we are all up and ready to learn.
Lets start today with our morning prayer.
God Our Father, as we prepare to begin our work, we ask you to help us to use properly the many gifts that you have given us, so that we may fully benefit from our day together at school. St Barbara Pray for us.
Numeracy
Today we are going to continue with our work on addition. Please select the same colour that you chose yesterday for todays task.
Red:
Today we are looking at addition sums with a missing number.
For example 4 + ___ = 9
We can do this by finding 4 on a number line and counting on until we land on 9. How many did we have to count on?

Today we are going to look at adding 2 digit numbers.
We can do this by using our partitioning strategy.
Partitioning is when you split your numbers into tens and units to make it easier to calculate your answer.
Example
45 + 22
Step 1 – Split your numbers into tens and units
45 = 40 + 5
22 = 20 + 2
Step 2 – Add both of your tens together
40 + 20 = 60
Step 3 – Add your units together
5 + 2 = 7
Step 4 – Add your answers together
60 + 7 = 67

Green:
Today we are going to look at 2 digit addition. We are going to look at problems which contain ‘bridging’.
Example
24 + 67
Step 1 – Split your numbers into tens and units
24 = 20 + 4
67 = 60 + 7
Step 2 – Add both of your tens together
20 + 60 = 80
Step 3 – Add your units together
4 + 7 = 11
Step 4 – Add your answers together
80 + 11 = 91

HWB
Remember it is very important to stay active during this time.
If you can, go out for a walk and get some fresh air.
Today I am going to try out this ‘Daily Walk Challenge’ and I thought Primary 3 might like to join in.
R.E
Throughout the month of May we honour and pray to Our Lady.
Did you know that Our Lady has many different names? These names are connected to different places where she has appeared or to help that she gives people in need. One of the names Our Lady has been given is Our Lady of Fatima. Click the link below to find more information about Our Lady of Fatima.
Now write a short paragraph to explain what happened when Our Lady appeared to three children in the town of Fatima. You can also include a picture.
Have a great day boys and girls and remember to take plenty of breaks.
If you are looking for some more challenges then you can select a task from your home learning grid.
Take care and keep smiling!
