Tuesday 28th June – Scale Drawings

LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Understand what is meant by a scale drawing and be able to use a real scale drawing to find real lengths, understand what measurements will be needed to draw a scale drawing of the classroom

SUCCESS CRITERIA: You will be able to reduce and enlarge a picture using a grid. You will be bale to find lengths from a scale drawing. You will be able to make appropriate measurements of our classroom in preparation of creating a scale drawing of the classroom

STARTER: Can you draw the picture of the cartoon cat on the two grids – one should become half size and the other should become double the size. (15 mins max if possible)

LESSON: Using the plans from my house extension get students to talk about what they show, the scale....

Use your ruler and calculator to measure and work out the length on the drawing and the real size of the following from the scale drawings

  1. Using the front elevation
    1. How wide is the upstairs small bedroom window
    2. How high is it from the floor to the gutter
    3. How wide is the garage door
    4. How high is the lowest section of the garage
    5. How wide is the central window of the downstairs bay window
  2. Using the side elevation
    1. How high is the door
    2. How wide is the total length of the gutter
    3. How far is it from the front of the house to the middle of the door
  3. Using the rear elevation
    1. How wide is the roof on the extension
    2. How wide is the upstairs bigger window
    3. How high above the ground is the top of the chimney

Part Two

How can we draw a scale drawing on a single piece of A4 paper of Maths Room 1 looking from above (The Plan View)

We should show where all doors, windows and walls are

What measurements will we need? Use my Sketch of the room to write your measurements down on . – Take Measurements of the room in pairs

PLENARY: Compare measurements from each of the groups / pairs. Using the scale drawing of another room ask questions about lengths

Thu – 23rd June – Reading Scales Practice and Sensible estimates

Learning objective: to read and interpret different scales and to make sensible estimates using standard measures

SUCCESS
CRITERIA: You will be able to read scales accurately and make sensible estimates.

STARTER: Can you fill in these scales with the values shown below each diagram

LEARNING: Check answers to starter to recap reading scales

Check answers with individuals as they complete questions

Now attempt question 1 on page 361, then questions 3,4 & 5 on page 362

Look at the diagram of the man and bus and lamppost. If the man is 1,8m tall can you make sensible estimates for teh following

  1. Height of the bus
  2. Height of the lamppost
  3. Length of the bus

Look at the picture of the scales. If we know each bag of sugar weighs 1kg, can we work out how much each of the books weighs?

Work through the questions on page 364/365.

Weds 15th June – Subtracting one 4 digit number from another 4 digit number

LEARNING Objective: Develop methods to enable you to subtract large numbers

SUCCESS CRITERIA: You will be able to subtract one large number from another large number correctly.

STARTER: Use Just in Time first for single digit subtraction and then double digit subtraction – give 5 seconds for dingle digit and 12 seconds for double digit (10- sums of each)

LESSON:

For these 2 digit numbers split them into sums, adding a tens number to a number bigger than 10 but less than 20

Eg

87 = 70 + 17

65 = 50 + 15

38 = 20 + 18

93 = 80 + 13

 
 

Can you do the same with these two digit numbers

43

57

86

94

38

28

88

79

91

56

 
 

Can you now do the same with these 3 digit numbers?

Eg

304 = 290 +14

208 = 190 + 18

507

602

203

404

109

208

 
 

 
 

How do we set about doing this sum 457 – 329 – Look at different methods of working out the answer on the IWB developing the long subtraction method

Get Students to try and subtract these sums

435 -214

657 – 434

673 – 548

876 – 687

564 – 359

3456 – 2445

Tues 14th June – Multiples

LEARNING OBJECTIVE: You will discover how to use patterns to help you remember your multiples

SUCESS CRITERIA: You will learn the multiples from 2 x to 9 x

STARTER: Which four squares are the largest Starter

LESSON: Using a copy of these blank 10 x 10 grids shade in the multiples of 2, then 3 then 4 .. and so on on each grid.

Are there any patterns you can spot. Can you see a way of remembering the 6, 7's 8;s and 9;s times tables from the patterns

Now use these 9 x 9 grids and shade in the multiples of 2, 3, 4 and so on...

Again are there any patterns you can spot.

If any time left use your grids to help answer all the questions on page 177 of Foundation Text Book

Thursday 9th June – Practising BODMAS

LEARNING OBJECTIVE: To practice using BODMAS.

SUCCESS CRITERIA: You will be able to use the rules of BODMAS when solving problems.

STARTER: BODMAS

Can you solve these problems – remember the rules of BODMAS

  1. (14 – 7) x 1 =
  2. 2 + 6 x 6 =
  3. (2 + 5) x 6 =
  1. 12 – 6 ÷ 3 =
  2. (12 – 6) ÷ 3 =
  3. 15 – ( 5 x 1) =

LESSON: Using these on screen Dice, get students to complete a 5 x 5 grid with the numbers 1 to 25 in any order

Example – Three Dice Grids and Lists

1

16

10

22

On each throw of the dice you have to use the numbers to make one of the numbers on your grid. Just put one line across any numbers you can get. You win as sson as you get a line vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

You must write down the numbers and how you have used them to get your answer so that your winning line can be checked

Eg if we get the numbers, 5, 3, 2, I could put 5 ÷ ( 3 + 2) = 1 and cross out number 1

If we get the numbers 4, 4 and 2, I could put ( 4 x 4 ) ÷ 2 = 8

Lets Play ......

When this game has run its course have a go at question 5 on page 116, then question 7 on page 117

PLENARY: Check answers to work of students by getting them up to board to demonstrate to others
