Mathematics

Today’s work:

Year 4:  Convert from kilograms to grams and vice versa.

Year 3:  Describe, name and sort 3-D shapes using a Carroll diagram.

Table 2:  Investigate odd and even numbers.

Please work through the activity document files – either by looking at the screen and writing the answers down or by printing off the sheets. Follow the instructions carefully and make sure you look through the sheets before you begin, so you can find the answers, extra support materials and the different levels of task - Mild (easier) and Hot (harder). There may also be activities to work with somebody else on. If there is a PowerPoint Presentation, then watch this first, listening to the teaching at the same time. All the answers are provided.
