Maths:Today, we will be recapping rounding numbers to the

nearest 100.

7,846 + 19,746 =

36,485 – 19,836 =

9,384 x 8 =

7,264 ÷ 6 =

Identify which number is in the ‘hundreds’ column.

You will either round down to the multiple of hundred circled (8500) or round up to the next multiple of hundred (8600)

Now write down your multiples of 100 as a number line to help you:

8100,8200,8300,8400,8500,8600,8700,8800,8900,9000

8553 on a number line would go between 8500 and 8600

Now you can see if you had to round down to 8500, you would – 53.

If you had to round up to 8600, you would +47.

Therefore, it is closest to 8600.

In school, we also discuss if the number to the right (the tens in this case) is 4 or below we round down and if it is 5 or above we round up. (the number to the right is a 5 so we round up)

Round these numbers to the nearest 100:

Check your answers!

Copy the list of numbers into your book…. Can you match them to the number they would round to (nearest 100)?Some may round to the same number!

SpellingSpellings for this week:

These words are homophones, that means they sound the same as another set of words but are spelled differently.

These homophones all have a ‘c’ for the ‘s’ sound.

Quick Write:

• Practise each word by doing a quick write.• Set a timer (you can use a phone, stopwatch or the second hand on a

clock)• Write the word at the bottom of your page• Start the timer• See how many times you can correctly copy the word!

•English• Today, we will be practicing writing sentences with relative clauses.

This week, you will begin to draft a newspaper report on the disappearance of Alice!

Today, you will write sentence with relative clauses, that you could include in your news report.

A relative clauses can be in the middle of a sentence(embedded) or at the end of the sentence.Relative clauses usually begin with a relative pronoun –Who which that where whose

Alice, who was only seven years old, was only allowed into the garden under the supervision of her elder sister.

The young girl fell down a rabbit hole, which apparently appeared under the hedge.

Your turn….

In your books, have a go at writing some relative clauses sentences that you could include in your newspaper report. Think about the content of your sentences…. Only report what the audience would need to know (facts) just like when you wrote the report on Titanium!

You could write sentences about:

AliceAlice’s sisterThe rabbitThe house where they liveThe rabbit hole

TigersThe tiger is the biggest species in the cat family. Tigers can reach 3.3 metres in length.

Wild tigers live in Asia, in places where there is plenty of prey. They live is thick forests or hide in areas of long grass.

Tigers' stripes are like human fingerprints; no two tigers have the same patterns.

Tigers usually hunt alone at night. They can eat up to 40 pounds of meat in one sitting and after this will not eat for the next few days.

CrocodilesCrocodiles can swim at 25mph with just the help of their tail.

Most crocodiles live in fresh water lakes or rivers.

Crocodiles can live as long as humans, up to 80 years.

When crocodiles sit with their mouths open on river banks, it is not aggression. They are trying to cool down as they sweat through their mouth.

Crocodiles have the strongest bite of any animal in the world.

WhalesKiller whales are some of the top predators in the marine world. They feed mostly on fish, but some hunt seals, sea lions and walruses.

Whales need to eat 50-150 kilograms of meat every day.

Whales are mammals, which means they need to come up for air, unlike fish which can breathe underwater.

The blue whale is the largest known mammal that has ever lived, with a length of up to 105 feet, and weight of approximately 105 tons. That’s the weight equivalent to 150 small cars!

Whales can not breathe through their mouths because their mouth is directly connected to the stomach

GiraffesA giraffe’s neck is 1.5-1.8 metres long but has the same number of vertebra as a human neck.

Giraffes only get about 30 minutes sleep a day.

Giraffes have purple tongues.

A giraffe’s habitat is usually in African savannas, grasslands or open woodlands. Other animals on the savanna use giraffes as watchtowers or observation posts for predators.

Giraffes are ruminants. This means that they have more than one stomach. In fact, giraffes have four stomachs which help with digestion.

ElephantsThere are two types of elephants, the Asian elephant and the African elephant.

A female elephant is called a cow. It will produce a single calf.

An elephant needs to drink about 210 litres a day

An elephant’s trunk size can grow about 2 metres long. Their trunks can sense the size, shape and temperature of an object. They use their trunks to pick up food and drink water.

Elephants have large thin ears. Their ears are made from a complex network of blood vessels, which regulate their temperature.

ButterfliesScientists estimate that there are between 15 000 and 20 000 different species of butterfly.

Butterflies have four wings. These are often brightly coloured with unique patterns made up of tiny scales.

Butterflies can live in the adult stage from anywhere between a week and a year, depending on the species.

Butterflies range in size from of an inch to 12 inches.18

When a butterfly emerges from a chrysalis, it waits a few hours.

SnakesSnakes do not have eyelids.

Snakes smell with their tongue.

Snakes cannot bite food so they swallow it whole. They have flexible jaws which allow them to eat prey bigger than their head!

Some snakes fake their death when feeling threatened. They flip onto their backs, open their mouths and let off a smelly gas.

Snakes’ skin is covered in scales and is smooth and dry. They shed their skin a number of times a year in a process that lasts a few days.
