Maths Week 2:
This week we have four main objectives:
1. Rounding numbers to the nearest 10, 100 or 100.
e.g. 937
937 to the nearest 10 is 940.
Here is a little rhyme to remember which 10 you need to round to:
1, 2, 3, 4Round DOWN to the ten before.
5, 6, 7, 8, 9Round UP to the next ten on the number line.
937 to the nearest 100 is 900.
(50+ ROUND UP) (49 or smaller ROUND DOWN)
937 to the nearest 1000 is 1000.
(500+ ROUND UP) (499 or smaller ROUND DOWN)
2. Converting fractions to decimals (tenths and hundredths)
e.g. 19/100 = 0.19
3. Understanding what a number is made up of:
e.g. 53 is made up of 5 TENS (50) and 3 UNITS (3)
8.7 is made up of 8 UNITS (8) and 7 TENTHS (0.7)
2.36 is made up of 2 UNITS (2), 3 TENTHS (0.3) and 6 HUNDREDTHS (0.06)
4. Ordering decimals on a number line:
e.g. Put the following decimals in order from smallest to biggest (like on a number line):
0.3 0.33 3 0.13
0.13 0.3 0.33 3 This is the correct answer

Santa's Holiday!
Tomorrow we will do our first FUN FRIDAY writing!
As you know, the theme is a recount. You will be Santa and you will describe what you did during the holiday so remember to talk to your family and friends about it tonight!
Things to think about:
1. Invent something fun/exciting that Santa did. He might have had a massive adventure or he may have fallen in love with a stunningly attractive elf!
2. Christmas vocabulary.
3. Think of one main idea for each paragraph that you are going to write.
Remember that we are allowed to steal each other's ideas and vocabulary on FUN FRIDAY! I can't wait to steal all of your best ideas!!!
See you tomorrow; remember your special pen!
Miss Sam
