Tuesday CHOOSE DAY

Date: 24th Mar 2020 @ 9:19am

Good morning.

Hope you're all feeling fit and healthy after watching Joe Wicks PE. If you missed it, catch it tomorrow at 9am. 

Today it is Tuesday so that means Tuesday Choose Day. You get to choose out of the two tasks below, which you want to complete!

Task 1:

Recap over fractions, watch this video on YouTube (skip to 1:45 as he waffles on for far too long at the beginning!!!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p33BYf1NDAE 

Recap from me: 

½ of 12 =                 

So we remember: to find a fraction of an amount we do

Whole number ÷ the denominator (bottom)

e.g. 12 ÷ 2 = 6

But what if we want to find a fraction with a different number on the numerator (top)?

For example:

2/3 of 12 =

Whole number ÷ the denominator (bottom) REMEMBER THAT PART IS THE SAME.

Then you multiply (x) your answer by the numerator (top)

e.g. 2/3 of 12

12 ÷ 3 = 4         

4 x 2=   8   

2/3 of 12 = 8

Answer these questions below: 

1. 1/5 of 45

2. 3/4 of 16

3. 2/8 of 64

4. 1/8 of 96

5. 2/3 of 36

 

Task 2: 

Watch this video on YouTube. This video contains lots of key vocabulary, make sure you make notes of the words used in the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsv7bYSrzMU&t=293s

Once you have watched the video, I would love for you to use your hands to measure these things in your bedroom. (You measure using your hands by putting one hand in front of the other touching then change the back one to the front and so on) or use a ruler if you do have one at home.

Measure: 

1. the longest thing in your bedroom

2. the widest thing in your bedroom

3. the shortest thing in your bedroom 

4. the tallest thing in your bedroom. 

Take a picture of your findings and email them to me. 

Remember, whatever task you choose on Tuesday Choose Day, I'd love to see. The email you can send it to is y3homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk

Speak tomorrow! 

Miss Humphreys :)
