Word list: will, that, this, then, them, they, all, are, my, her. (Revise)
Task: Record your date, title and I can in your jotter. Practise your spelling words everyday in a different way in your jotter. You can choose an Activity from your grid. This could be: rainbow spelling, bubble words, ABC words (alphabetical order), curly words, word shapes, capital and lower case words or just write out 4x in your jotter. Check over your work!
Main Activity
- I can skim and scan the text.

Task: Record your title and I can in your jotter. Read the text ‘The Human Ear – Hearing and Touching’ carefully twice. Take time to think about what you have read.

Finisher: Reading. Log on to Oxford Owl using the login details from yesterday’s post via ‘My Class Login’ and choose a book of your choice.

Maths: Subtraction
Warm up task: Mental Maths. Record your title, I can and Q1-16 in your jotter. Complete mental maths sheet 3:A3. Check over your answers. 🔍
Main activity: 3-digit formal subtraction
- I can formally subtract 3-digit numbers by 2/3 digit numbers with no exchanging.
Task: Record your title and I can in your jotter. Take your time to write out one sum at a time with neat digits written underneath each other and the – symbol to the left. This will help you keep the HTU in the correct columns. Use a ruler to draw your answer lines.
Let’s talk through sum number 1 as an example. Start by looking at the digits in the Units column and takeaway the bottom digit from the top (7-6). Record your answer (1) underneath your digit (6) then do the same for the Tens column (5-2). Record your answer (3) underneath your digit (2) and finally the Hundreds column (3-1). Record your answer (2) under the digit (1). Your answer should be 231. Remember to start from the Units, move to the Tens then the Hundreds. Use your fingers to help you count back accurately.👍🏼
