Maths

Last week we looked at multiplication. Remember ‘multiply’ and ‘times’ mean adding the same number again and again or ‘groups of’ a certain number. For example, 3 x 2 or 3 twos means that we add 2 three times,  2 + 2 +2 or  we add 3 groups of 2 like this,  **    +  **    +    **

Did you know that when you count in 2s, 5s and 10s you are reciting the 2, 5 and 10 times tables!

Here is the two times table. The answers are even and are going up in twos

Use the 100 splat square to count in 2s and 5s.

Multiplication and Addition
Multiplication is when you take one number and add it together a number of times.

Example:

5 multiplied by 4 = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20

 watch Miss Rai explain here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR8GpsMC29U

We took the number 5 and added it together 4 times. This is why multiplication is sometimes called “times”. You might see x in a sum. That means times or multiplied. Have a go at these sums. Use drawings, playdoh, buttons, pasta or other objects to put into groups to help you count and add.

a) 1+1+1+1+1=                       b) 2+2+2+2=

c) 4+4+4=                              d) 5+5+5+5+5

e) 3+3=                                    f) 6+6+6=

g) 10+10+10+10+10+10

i) 0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0=



World Oceans Day

World Oceans Day is held every year on 8th June to raise awareness of the vital importance of our oceans and the role they play in sustaining a healthy planet. A global celebration, it looks to bring people and organisations together across the globe in a series of events highlighting how we can all help protect and converse the oceans.

We learnt about sea pollution at the start of Primary 2 during our seaside and sea creature topic. Thinking about plastic, what things can you do at home to help? Can you design a poster to show the importance of looking after our oceans? You can use any materials you want. Remember to make it clear and bold to get your message across to others.


PAThS

Today in Paths we are going to go over kindness and respect. What does being kind mean? What does it look like, can you give examples? What do you think respect means?

Respect is when you treat someone fairly and make them feel cared for and important. Remember it doesn’t matter what someone looks like, how they talk or where they are from, every person is important and should be respected. You are important too and also should be respected! If more people respect each other then the world will be a kinder place. Think of  and name all the people you show respect to.

Friday Afternoon Science 5.6.20

Good afternoon, did you have a good lunch? Let’s learn more about materials in Science!

Last week we learned that Materials are the matter or substance that objects are made from. We use a wide range of different materials daily; these might include:

  • metal
  • plastic
  • wood
  • glass
  • ceramics
  • synthetic fibres

Different materials have different features, or properties, which make them suitable for different uses. Some materials maybe more suitable than others for particular uses or for manufacturing specific objects; for example, metal shoes wouldn’t be very comfortable and a cardboard door wouldn’t be very strong!

What does water proof mean?

is something that keeps water out. A plastic raincoat is an example of something that is waterproof.

Winnie the Pooh Needs a New Umbrella

Are you ready do be a scientist and do an experiment? Read the pdf file to help Winnie! Follow the instructions and write up your results in your jotter by making a table. Use the table below to help you. What was the best material to keep water out? What was the worst material?

The Rainbow

Christina Rossetti By Christina Rossetti

Boats sail on the rivers,
  And ships sail on the seas;
But clouds that sail across the sky
  Are prettier far than these.

There are bridges on the rivers,
  As pretty as you please;
But the bow that bridges heaven,
  And overtops the trees,
And builds a road from earth to sky,
Is prettier far than these.

This poem by Christina Rossetti has 2 verses. A person who writes poems is called a poet.

Task 1 – Reading, thinking and discussing.

  •  Read the poem out loud
  • What two things does the poet suggest is not as pretty as the clouds sailing in the sky?
  •  What do you think is the ” the bow that bridges heaven,
      And overtops the trees,
    And builds a road from earth to sky” is?
  •  What does the poet think is not as pretty as the “bow” ?
