SPELLINGS ACTIVITY

PRACTICE YOUR SPELLINGS BY WRITING THEM OUT 3 OR 4 TIMES.

IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF WHAT ANY OF THE WORDS MEAN, LOOK

THEM UP IN A DICTIONARY!

READING

READ THE TEXT ON THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD.

READING ACTIVITY ANSWER THE QUESTIONS ON THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE

WORLD USING THE TEXT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU!

MATHS

TODAY WE ARE LOOKING AT SUBTRACTING FRACTIONS. JUST

LIKE WHEN WE LOOKED AT ADDING FRACTIONS, WE NEED TO

HAVE THE DENOMINATORS THE SAME. THIS MIGHT MEAN

THAT WE NEED TO MULTIPLY THE FRACTION. WE NEED TO

REMEMBER TO DO THE SAME TO THE TOP AS WE DO TO THE

BOTTOM!

4/5 – 1/5 = 3/5.

THE DENOMINATOR DOES NOT CHANGE AS THEY ARE THE

SAME, JUST LIKE WHEN WE ARE ADDING.

MATHSLOOK AT THIS QUESTION:

4/10 – 2/20 =

THESE DENOMINATORS ARE DIFFERENT SO WE NEED TO

CHANGE ONE.

LOOK AT 4/10.

WE CAN MULTIPLY THIS BY 2, SO THE DENOMINATOR IS 20.

4/10 WILL BECOME 8/20.

OUR NEW QUESTION IS:

8/20 – 2/20

OUR ANSWER WOULD BE 6/20

THIS CAN BE SIMPLIFIED TO 3/10

MATHS ACTIVITY

THE SEVEN WONDERS

LOOK AT THE WORLD MAP ON THE SHEET. IT IS YOUR JOB TO LOCATE ALL SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD ON THE MAP! MARK THEM WITH A DOT AND AN ARROW TO LABEL WHICH WONDER IT IS. USE A MAP OR GOOGLE

MAPS TO HELP YOU!

Be sure to upload your work to Seesaw for your teacher to see

and mark each day!

TUESDAY

PLAN FOR THE DAY:

• SPELLING

• READING

• LITERACY

• MATHS

• ICT

READING ACTIVITY LOOK AT THE NON FICTION PIECE OF WRITING ON THE

SEVEN WONDERS OF THE EARTH THAT WE LOOKED AT

YESTERDAY. YOU WILL NEED THIS TO ANSWER TODAYS

QUESTIONS!

LITERACYANNOTATE THIS IMAGE USING DESCRIPTIVE LANGUAGE.

THINK ABOUT YOUR SENSES AND WHAT ADJECTIVES YOU

COULD USE TO DESCRIBE THE SCENE!

LITERACY ACTIVITY YOU NOW NEED TO WRITE A SETTING DESCRIPTION FOR THE

TAJ MAHAL. USE THE ANNOTATIONS AROUND YOUR IMAGE TO

SUPPORT YOUR WRITING!

MATHSWHEN MULTIPLYING FRACTIONS BY A WHOLE NUMBER (AN INTEGER), IT IS

IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT EVERY WHOLE NUMBER IS ALSO A FRACTION.

LOOK AT THIS QUESTION:

2/15 X 3

THIS CAN BE REWROTE AS:

2/15 X 3/1

THIS IS BECAUSE THE 3 IS A WHOLE NUMBER. ANY WHOLE NUMBER AS A FRACTION HAS 1 AS A DENOMINATOR.

WE THEN MULTIPLY THESE NUMBERS TOGETHER.

2X3 = 6

15X1=15

OUR ANSWER WOULD BE 6/15

MATHSHAVE A GO AT ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS:

4 X 6/11

5/8 X 6

REMEMBER THAT MULTIPLICATION IS COMMUTATIVE AND CAN BE

DONE EITHER WAY AROUND,

MATHSANSWERS!

4 X 6/11

4/1 X 6/11

4X6=24

1X11=11

24/11 OR 2 2/11

5/8 X 6

5/8 X 6/1

5X6=30

8X1=8

30/8 OR 3 6/8 OR 3 3/4

MATHS ACTIVITY

ICT – GOOGLE EARTH

USE GOOGLE EARTH TO FIND THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD. WRITE WHAT YOU SAW AROUND THE SEVEN WONDERS AND WHAT IS

IT LIKE THERE. IS IT WHAT YOU EXPECTED OR NOT?

SEE IF YOU CAN FIND ALL SEVEN.

Be sure to upload your work to Seesaw for your teacher to see

WEDNESDAY

PLAN FOR THE DAY:

• SPELLINGS

• LITERACY

• READING

• MATHS

• ART

SPELLINGS ACTIVITY PRACTICE YOUR SPELLINGS BY LOOKING UP THE

DEFINITIONS.

READING ACTIVITY WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THE SEVEN WONDERS, BUT

WHAT IS A WONDER?! THINK OF DIFFERENT MEANINGS

FOR WONDER AND WRITE THEM AROUND THE THOUGHT

BUBBLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PAGE.

LITERACY

WHAT IS A NON-CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT?

A NON-CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT GIVES THE READER

INFORMATION. IT DOES NOT HAVE A SET

STRUCTURE OR LAY OUT. IT USES SUB-HEADINGS TO

MAKE THE INFORMATION CLEAR TO THE READER. IT

MAKES IT EASY TO FIND INFORMATION YOU NEED

QUICKLY.

LITERACYHAVE A GO AT PLANNING A NON CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT ON THE SEVEN

WONDERS. PICK YOUR FAVOURITE AND RESEARCH IT. USE THE SUB

HEADINGS TO HELP YOUR RESEARCH.

MATHS

TO MULTIPLY A FRACTION BY ANOTHER FRACTION, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CHANGE THE DENOMINATORS INTO THE SAME

NUMBER!

YOU SIMPLY MULTIPLY THE DENOMINATORS TOGETHER AND THEN MULTIPLY THE DENOMINATOR.

LOOK AT THE QUESTION BELOW:

2/5 X 2/3

FIRST, MULTIPLY THE NUMERATORS (2X5=10)

THEN, MULTIPLY THE DENOMINATORS (5X3=15)

OUR ANSWER WOULD BE 10/15

10/15 CAN BE SIMPLIFIED TO 2/3.

MATHSHAVE A GO AT THE QUESTIONS BELOW:

3/10 X 4/5

2/15 X 1/2

MATHSANSWERS:

3/10 X 4/5

3X4=12

10X5=50

12/50 IS THE ANSWER

THIS CAN BE SIMPLIFIED TO 6/25

2/15 X ½

2X1=2

15X2=30

2/30 IS THE ANSWER

THIS CAN BE SIMPLIFIED TO 1/15

MATHS ACTIVITY

DRAWING

CHOOSE A WONDER OF THE WORLD AND SKETCH IT. YOU CAN USE IMAGES ONLINE TO HELP YOU! REMEMBER TO USE THE

TECHNIQUES WE HAVE LOOKED AT IN CLASS!

THURSDAY

PLAN FOR THE DAY:

• LITERACY

• READING

• MATHS

• GEOGRAPHY

READING ACTIVITY

READ THE COMPREHENSION

TASK ON A JOURNEY TO

JO’BURG.

COMPLETE THE QUESTIONS

ON THE TEXT AFTER YOU

HAVE READ IT.

LITERACY – NON-CHRONOLOGICAL REPORTSUSE YOUR PLAN FROM YESTERDAY TO WRITE A NON

CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT! REMEMBER TO WRITE IN

FULL SENTENCES!

LITERACY – NON-CHRONOLOGICAL REPORTSUSE THE SUCCESS CRITERIA TO HELP YOU.

MATHS

WHEN FINDING FRACTIONS OF AN AMOUNT, YOU DIVIDE BY THE

DENOMINATOR AND THEN MULTIPLY BY THE NUMERATOR!

FOR EXAMPLE:

IF YOU WANTED TO FIND ¼ OF 16, YOU WOULD DIVIDE 16 BY 4.

16 DIVIDED BY 4 IS 4.

THEN, YOU MULTIPLY 4 BY THE NUMERATOR.

THE NUMERATOR IS 1

1X4=4

THE ANSWER IS 4.

MATHSIS WE TAKE THE SAME QUESTION:

FIND ¼ OF 16

16 DIVIDED BY 4 IS 4.

THEN, YOU MULTIPLY 4 BY THE NUMERATOR.

THE NUMERATOR IS 1

1X4=4

THE ANSWER IS 4.

WHAT IF I WANTED TO FIND ¾ OF 16?

I WOULD FIND 1/4, (WHICH WE KNOW IS 4) AND MULTIPLY IT BY 3, AS

THIS IS THE NUMERATOR.

4X3=12.

IN THIS QUESTION, THE ANSWER IS 12.

MATHS

WE CAN DO THIS FOR ANY QUESTION ASKING FOR A FRACTION OF AN AMOUNT.

IF I WANT TO KNOW WHAT 3/5 OF 30G IS, I CAN USE THE SAME METHOD.

30 SHARED INTO 5 IS 6. (DIVIDING BY THE DENOMINATOR)

6 X 3 = 18. (MULTIPLYING BY THE NUMERATOR)

THE ANSWER WOULD BE 18G. (REMEMBER YOUR UNITS OF MEASUREMENT!)

MATHS ACTIVITY
