Time Revision

As we approach the end of the school year, it is a good time to revisit topics that we have learnt. Today we are going to look at telling the time. Have a go at the attached work and then look at the online game below.

Today we will look at telling the time to the exact minute. I have attached 2 sheets. One looks at times that are ‘to the hour’ and the other is ‘past the hour’. Choose a challenge from both. There are games to support this on the webpage that I shared yesterday.

Analogue - Digital Time

Look at the PowerPoint and then choose a challenge from the sheet attached. 

This week we will be looking at measurement of length, weight and capacity. Today I would like you to create a mind map of what you already know about measurement. Think about the following things:

• What units of measurement are used for measuring different things? e.g. cm for length
• What apparatus are you likely to use to measure different things? e.g. a ruler to measure the length of a pencil
• How do you convert between one unit of measurement to another? e.g. 1 cm = 10mm

Record everything you know. Feel free to do some further research to check your understanding of measurement. Then, throughout the week, we will consolidate and add to your current learning.

Design a Game

Can you design a game using the mathematical skills that you have learnt this week? 

Who would the game be for?

What would the theme be?

What would you hope the people playing the game would learn from it?

Perhaps you could play your game with someone at home.

***Please note these activities look slightly different to ones you usually see. The aim is to complete one challenge from each attached sheet.
