Solving Multiplication Word Problems

IntroductionThis week we will be applying what we learned about multiplication this year and using it to solve worded problems. When we need to multiply, this means we groups things together equally. We know that skip counting can help us find the total easily.

Key Questions- What does equal mean?- What key words remind us to make groups?

Task:In your distance learning book, draw the equal groups and record your answer.

Mon Science: Seasonal Changes Solving Division Word Problems

Distance Learning - Week Beginning 21st June 2020

Key Questions:- How many seasons are there?- Can you name any of the seasons?- Which is the first season?- Can you describe the clothes people wear for each season?- Can you describe the weather is each season?

Task:Your task is to select a season and draw a picture of yourself in that season. Think carefully about what you would wear. Draw the weather that you would see in that

In summer the sun shines and it is really hot. People wear shorts and t-shirts. They also wear sun hats and sunglasses. The trees are still green and there are lots of beautiful flowers. In summer, people like to go to the beach and swim in the sea.

IntroductionToday we will continue revising. Earlier this year when learning about division, we understood that this means we need to share things into equal groups.

Remember – It is really important that groups have equal amounts.

Key Questions- How can you describe division?- How can we share fairly?

Task:In your distance learning book, draw the groups and share the cupcakes and sweets equally amongst them. Record your answer.
