For homework this week, you need to complete activities associated with the four times tables and quartering. 

Number sequences
Find the missing numbers by counting on in 4s.

Word Problems
Using your knowledge of quartering, solve the word problems. Remember RUCSAC when solving problems.
R-read
U-underline and understand
C- calculate
S- solve
A- answer
C- check

Quarter these items
Count the items and find how many would be a quarter of each amount. For example- 2 cakes is 1/4 of 8 cakes.

This week we are working on fractions. The children have been learning how to count on in fours to solve problems. 

For homework this week you will be required to play a game of concentration using your knowledge of doubling. When you turn a card you will get a number, you then have to turn another card to try and find its matching number sentence. 

Instructions
To play, cut along the solid line and place all rectangles face down. One at a time, each player will turn over two cards. If the visual matches with the doubles facts, the player is able to keep the cards. If the visual does not match the cards, they player must return the two cards to their original position. Continue playing until no matches are left to be made. The player with the most matches by the end of the game wins!

For homework this week, the children have been asked to complete the sheet and display their knowledge of time. They need to think about what time things happen in the school day. One area that many of the children found challenging was 'quarter to.' Please practise this at home.

When you have finished your homework, you may want to try one of the games below to test your skill! Let me know how you get on.

For homework the children have been asked to find how much change should be given from one pound. An example is below. The car costs 10p so if a person paid 1 pound for it they would need 90p change.

When there are prices that do not involve 0 units we solve the problem as follows.

Example:
65p+___=100p (1 pound)
65p + 5p=70p (next ten)
70p + 30p = 100p (one pound)
30p + 5p= 35p change
