Good morning everyone,
This morning we are going to continue our work using money in our maths. Begin with the number of the day: 52,693 then do as much of the starter slide as you can:
There are two main tasks. The first sheet is subtraction of amounts of money then there is a set of Problem Solving questions. You will need the Problem Solving Prices sheet to complete the Problem Solving questions:
Problem Solving with Money Mild
Problem Solving with Money Spicy
Problem Solving with Money Hot
Our next task for this morning is a topic one. This tells of a short lived third attempt at a Jacobite Rising in 1719 and contains a copy of a handwritten letter from James VII/II to his loyal subject, John Cameron of Lochiel, who was exiled (banished or forced to live outside his home country) as punishment for supporting the Jacobite cause. Try reading the letter before you read the translation, I think it is amazingly easy to read considering it was written almost exactly 300 years ago (last week). You won’t be able to do all the activities as they are meant to be done as a class but think about the questions they ask, how do you think John Cameron would feel about his exile and receiving this letter from his King? Write a reply to King James as if you were John Cameron.
Remember to upload your work to your Personal Learning Blog. You shouldn’t need to print any of these sheets out.
Have a good morning!
Mrs Morrison & Mrs Lea
