XIII.III.MMXXVI

Percentages as Fractions

At the start of the lesson, we looked at a word problem from the previous lesson, trying to understand and work it out in our table groups. After this, we used blank 100 squares to represent different percentages and fractions.

We then moved on to some questions in our books.

Today we put all of our understanding about multiplication and division to use when we looked at word problems. We worked in pairs, using our oracy skills to work together well as a team, talking through each step so that there was a shared understanding.

Some of them required a bit more thinking and nearly tripped some of us up!

We have been practising using long multiplication, completing 3-digit x 2-digit numbers.

We have worked collaboratively to share our understanding of the process with our partners.

Today we were introduced to long multiplication, multiplying 2-digit numbers by 2-digit numbers. We needed to remember to multiply by the ones, then the tens and to carry over/exchange into the next place value column.

WALT - Factors and Common Factors.

We started the lesson by reviewing what factors were, as we had previously learnt this a lot in Y4 when doing Mastering Number.

(Factor x Factor = Product)

We then continued to look at factors, drawing factor bugs to find out how many factors, how many factor pairs and which factors were common across different times tables.

WALT - Powers of 10.

In maths today, we used a Gattegno chart to help when finding 10x, 100x, 1000x, 10,000x bigger. This helped with out multiplying by multiples of 10 too, as we could visibly see the number of 'jumps' needed and how it moves up a place value column.

We then had a go at some worded questions in our books.
