Maths

Daily Review

Task One

When you look at number stories, it is important to think carefully about whether you need to add or subtract (take away).

If the story is asking you to put two or more things together, then you have to add.

If the story is asking you to find the difference between two items, and see how much less it is, or how many more you need, then you have to subtract (take away).

Lots of people find it hard to understand what finding the difference between two numbers means, so let's have a look at how to explain this, and try one or two examples.

Then try the second activity where you have to sort questions out into an Add or Subtract column. Cut out each square and glue it under the Add heading or the Subtract heading in your scrapbook.

Task Two

Sometimes we get asked questions and aren't sure what to do about them. Have a look carefully at this example.

Again you need to think carefully about what the story is asking.

The Whole number of shells they found was 48. Jane found 23, so did Ryan find more or less than 48?

Then show how you worked it out. You can do it by drawing, like in the example to the right, or you can use boxes like below.

Now try choosing two of your own to do from these slides on the right.

Follow the example above, and use the working out sheet below.

Hint - The first three are slightly easier. If you want something slightly more challenging, then have a go at the 4th and 5th slides.

PE - Fitness running or...

AFL

Ball drills such as kicking to each other and hand passes will be conducted prior to playing a game.

The teacher will sit down with their group and go through the rules of the game and how to play. Once all students are clear on how to play/the expectations you will have a game with the teacher refereeing.
