Science Question: How can you identify objects in your

house? This week, we would like you to use a

technique scientists use to classify things called

classification. See Week 4’s enquiry below.

Why not try making your own

RockWalk in your garden

using the resources below to

make your own salt dough

see them shared on Class

Dojo! #H2S

Week 4 Home Learning- Maths

Consolidation: Times Tables

Task 1- Revise all multiplication facts up to 12X12. Can you complete the below

chart by filling in the blank products (answers to multiplication calculations).

Task 2- Play multiplication games with your family members to improve your rapid

recall, remember you have to work strategically to win.

Task 3 – Login to TT Rock Stars to improve your rapid recall of multiplication facts.

The quicker you can recall the more points you receive.

Using what you already know to find out what you don’t know

For example:

-I know 5x5= 25 so I know 10x 5= 50 because double 5 is 10 and double 25 is 50.

-I know 8x3= 24 so I know 4x3= 12 because half of 8 is 4 and half of 24 is 12.

-I know 12 x 10 = 120 because I know 10x10= 100 and 2 x 10= 20, 10+2 =12 and 100

+ 20 = 120.

If you are ever stuck on a multiplication calculation, always think what do I already

know?

Maths Task 1

Task 2- Multiplication games

You are going to be pracising your 7 times tables. Therefore your first factor will be 7. Then, Roll 2 dice.

Add them together eg) 3 + 2 = 5. Your calculation is 5 X 7. Find the product (answer) 35 and colour

it in. Take turns with your partner. The first to get 4 in a row wins.

Task 2- Multiplication Games

The game is for 2 players.

Each player takes it in turn to choose 3 numbers in a line (either horizontal or vertical) where

the numbers create a multiplication calculation E.g. 2 5 10 would be 2 x 5 = 10. The play continues

until one person can’t create a line of 3, thus losing the game.

Summer Term Science Week 4:

Enquiry Type - Identifying and Classifying

Question

How can you identify objects in your house?

Select at least 10-15 random objects in your house. Consider how they are

similar and how they are different to each other.

Challenge About this type of Scientific Enquiry

Research Carl Linneaus who created the

system of taxonomy, which is how we

classify living things.

Identifying and classifying is how we can make

sense and order of the world around us. This

enquiry type requires using observation and

reasoning skills.

Examples of classifying include how we classify

animals (into mammals, reptiles etc), plants and

foods.

Identifying and classifying is used by scientists

to help learn about the natural world.

Create a classification key to identify

your selected objects.eg:
