🐳 Tuesday 9th June 🐋

👋🏼 Morning Primary 5! If you are looking for something to keep yourself active today, you could do some ‘Blue Yoga’ which was inspired by World Oceans Day yesterday. 🧘‍♀️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=332&v=V55I8S_8obE&feature=emb_logo

Additionally, remember to do some reading at some point today – whether that be on the Epic! reading app or a book of your own! 📖 📚

Finally, a big well done goes to yesterday’s Sumdog Top 5 – enjoy your 200 coins from me! 👏🏼💰

I can work out and record addition calculations using formal methods.

Today we are going to be building on what we did last week by looking at 5-digit formal addition sums!

Activity 1: Five-digit numbers, with carrying

Activity 2: Five-digit word problems

52,317 people watched the semi-final of the football World Cup, but 31,896 more people watched the finals. Find the number of people who watched the finals.
There are 45,678 males and 32,257 females in a town. Find the total population of the town.

Traffic Light today’s work and leave a comment to say how you found formal addition today. 🚦

Extension:

Head over to Sumdog to further practise your math skills – the NLC Maths contest is only on until this Thursday!
If you would like to practise more formal addition sums, you could use the random number generator to create some sums! https://numbergenerator.org/random-5-digit-number-generator

If you would like to learn a little more about our oceans, you could watch this YouTube video which will tell you all about them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WZsxVDTqcU

Following that, you could create an acrostic poem for World Oceans Day. 🦑🐳🦈🐬🦐🦀🐙🦞🐋🐠
