WORK FOR STUDENTS OF MS. O’ROURKE AND MS. LINDON
Hi Children, Parent(s) / Guardian(s),
‘Hoping all’s well with you. ☺ I’m sure you have been doing your best with the school work which has been set for you, and you must be praised for that, because it is not easy to stay motivated when you are not in class where your friends and teachers can encourage you. Here are some jokes as a little treat to give you a laugh. Warning – only Some are funny!! https://www.ducksters.com/jokes/
If you scroll down you will find your classes’ activities for the next week and a half, ie. 4/6 up to 14/6 .
I have tried to put a good choice/ range for you, so you do not have to bother with anything that’s too taxing. You can instead practise everything else a few times, or, revisit other sites/ activities which you were already introduced to over the last number of weeks.
Hope this helps,
Take care and stay happy,
Miss O’Rourke.

Using this website, work your way through the activities below as the week goes on.
(9) Count in 10s to 1000. Start with a clear page. Use the Arrow cards. Click on the 3rd + sign. Continue clicking on it and watch the numbers grow from 0 to 1000. Say the numbers aloud.
(10) Do the opposite now. Count backwards from 1000 to 1. Use the 3rd – sign. Say the numbers aloud.
(11) Make a random 2 digit number yourself. Say what it is. Then predict what the numbers 10 more and 10 less than it are. Write your predictions down. Then check if you were correct by using the add 10 and subtract 10 functions. Do this several times.
(12) Make a random 3 digit number yourself. Don’t forget to include zero sometimes! Say what it is. Then predict what the numbers 10 more and 10 less than it are. Write your predictions down. Then check if you were correct by using the add 10 and subtract 10 functions. Do this several times.
(13) Do activities 9 to 12 using Deinnes blocks and Abacus. Flick to compare all 3 methods.
(14) Make a 2 digit number with Abacus or Deinnes blocks, but hide the Arrow cards. Instead, write on a piece of paper yourself what you think the number is, then ‘show’ the Arrow cards answer to see if you were correct. Do this several times.
(15) Do activity 14 with 3 digit numbers.
