Good Morning P4! I hope you are all well. It is to be a beautiful day outside so make sure you enjoy it and get plenty of fresh air.
This morning’s tasks are:
Challenge
Let’s start this lovely Wednesday morning with a ‘Number of the Day’. Complete in your jotter or on paper. https://mathsstarters.net/numoftheday/
Literacy
Today, we are going to be using a ‘Thesaurus’. https://www.thesaurus.com/ Remember a Thesaurus is used to find other words that mean the same thing or something similar. Another name for this is a Synonym.
- Use a Thesaurus to complete a word scavenger hunt. Thesaurus Scavenger Hunt
- Think of 5 to 10 words that describe food items that you do like and ones that you do not. Can you think of lots of synonyms for these?
Maths
Today we are going to continue thinking about working out change.
-Set up a shop/cafe in your house, label the products with different prices up to £2 and/or make a price list. You have £5 to spend. Buy two items and work out how much change you will have left.
-Willy Wonka’s Chocolate shop is back open for business, for deliveries only. Work out how much change each of the customers are due back. Will wonka Hot willy wonka Mild
Why not practice counting of money
-If you have a piggy bank full of coins, why not play a game. Grab a handful of coins, count how much money you have in your hand.
