Cedar Class Learning for Fri 15th May

Please can you see the Facebook post regarding the author chat, and email any questions you would like to ask a successful author. This is a great opportunity to get some writing tips which we are very lucky to have.

Spelling: Can you remember the spelling rule you have been learning this week? Get someone at home to test your memory of it, and then get them to pick out 10 words from your word list and see if you can spell them correctly!

Arithmetic: This week we looked at all of the times tables we know so far, including the division facts for these. Get someone at home to give you 10 questions and see how quickly you can get the correct answer.

English: LO: to create a script.

Hopefully by now you have created some form of manga comic or illustrated story; if not, you can use any other story you have created for today’s activity. I would like you to use your manga comic/story to create a script for the dialogue in this. You don’t have to write a script for the whole thing if you have created a long story; just choose a very important or action filled part. Make sure to include stage directions to show any actors how they should be reading the script, or what they should be doing as they read their lines.

Once completed, get some people in your home to read the script with you and see if the way they read it is how you had planned it to be!

Maths: LO: to multiply and divide 3 & 4 digit numbers.

This week we have looked at multiplication and division. We have looked at questions we can solve quickly using mental methods in our arithmetic sessions, and written methods in our maths sessions. Which operation did you find hardest: multiplication or division? Which type of method did you find the hardest: mental maths or the written array methods? I would like you to use today’s maths session to revisit what you found the most difficult this week. Try and solve 10 questions to make sure you understand it.
