Summer term - Week 11

Please do the following each weekday: -

1. Times Tables Rock Stars – improve your score!

2. Hit the Button each day before completing your main maths activity. Focus on times

tables, division facts, number bonds and squared numbers.

3. Number of the day. Each day you will also have number of the day. How many ways

can you get to this number? What can you tell me about this number? You know the

drill by now!

Post photos of your number of the day on Kidblog so we can see who gets the most number

facts!

4. Complete a task each day from here. There are three activities for each day (the

first one is the easiest and the last one is the hardest - challenge yourself!). You do

not need to print anything out. Please write your answers in your exercise books or on

paper. Remember how to set out your work neatly and date it.

5. After the task there are now two challenges. Remember to show your working out

and explain your answers fully using mathematical language if necessary. Don’t worry

if you can’t do all of them!

6. Cooking is all about maths too – measures!

Week 11 is all about subtracting and adding fractions.

Remember –

Easiest

Medium

Hardest

You choose which one you think is best for you. You can challenge

yourself by working through them all if you find the first one easy!

The Ultimate Challenge Multiplication and Division sheet at the end

for you to practise your rapid recall of tables and their related

division facts – hugely important in helping you with fractions.

If you have any questions for us, please put them on Kidblog.

If you get really stuck – don’t worry as we will do some more practise

when we all back in school. If you need to, stop, and spend more time

on the other daily maths activities.

Can you remember the following mathematical vocabulary?

equivalent fractions, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, improper

fractions, mixed numbers, convert, numerator, denominator, represent, add,

quarter, halves, eighths, fifths, whole, numerator, denominator, multiply,

You will need these this week. You have covered all of this in class, so this is a

bit of revision and extra fluency practise.

You do not need to print – write the answers or draw diagrams

in your book or on paper.

Task 1

Today’s number of the day is 1

Remember – one whole has the same number as the numerator

and the denominator. (e.g. 1 whole is the same as 2/2, 12/12

etc)

Task 2

Today’s number of the day is 4
