Good morning everybody.

Maths No Problem  

1st the answers from Wed 20 th      Chp 10 Lesson 4

Today’s lesson: Chapter 10     Lesson 5

Lesson Objective: To be able to measure volume in litres using decimals.

Textbook pages:  100 – 102     Workbook pages   73 – 74

Lesson Notes: To begin this lesson, show pupils the In Focus task and allow them time to discuss this and share their thoughts with the class. What did you do first when attempting to solve the problem and why?

Show the class how to find the volume of each container using the models and images in Let’s Learn. Highlight the differences between the two types of beakers and the measuring scales. One beaker measures up to 100 ml and the other measures up to 500 ml. The scale on the 100 ml beaker has intervals of 10 ml, and the scale on the 500 ml beaker has intervals of 50 ml. In the previous lesson, we learnt that 100 ml is 0.1 l. What about 10 ml? 10 ml = ? l. Can we write that as a decimal? Do the same for 50 ml and 500 ml. Then ask pupils to write 40 ml and 450 ml in litres as decimals. Who was correct, Amira or Sam?

During Guided Practice, pupils are measuring and recording volumes of water in litres.

Mental Maths / Arithmetic

1st answers to yesterday’s mental maths questions:

324 x 3 = 972                      415 x 4 = 1660                      241 x 5 = 1205                      153 x 3 = 459                    231 x  4 = 924

 

Today, I would like you to practice subtracting 1000’s

6426 – 1000 =                    7538 – 4000 =          5628 – 2000 =                       6894 – 4000 =

6479 – 3000 =                    8339 – 5000 =                       12,478 – 9000 =                   34,589 – 20,000 =
