Solve these addition problems. First estimate the answer:

We can add using a written strategy. First we estimate what the answer will be: 1 248 + 457 = is around 1700.We start by adding the units: 8 + 7 = 15 units. We can rename this as 1 ten and 5 units. We put the 5 units in the units column and carry the 10 to the tens column.4 tens add 5 tens is 9 tens plus the carried 10 makes 10 tens. We rename this as 1 hundred and 0 tens.We put the zero in the tens column and carry the 1 hundred.2 hundreds add 4 hundreds makes 6 hundreds plus the carried hundred makes 7 hundreds. We put the 7 in the hundreds column.There is 1 thousand in the thousand column so we simply put the 1 in the thousand column at the bottom.

Science and Technology HERE COMES THE SUN

List different ways to heat water:

1. __________________________________________________

2. __________________________________________________

3. __________________________________________________

4. __________________________________________________

5. __________________________________________________ Science experiment – Here comes the sun Today you will be investigating the best method to heat water in a can, using energy from the sun. You will set 2 cans in the sunlight, one normal and one modified, and compare the temperature of the water over time. A modified can could include wrapping in aluminium foil, paper towel or changing the colour of a can. This experiment should be completed under the supervision of an adult. Materials Materials You will need:

• 2 empty soft drink cans – 1 regular, 1 modified • Water • A stopwatch • Thermometer (optional)

Questions for investigation What modification did you make to a can? Predict – How will the modification to the can make it heat faster? Reason – Why do you think that modification to the can will allow it to heat faster?

If you are unable to complete this experiment because you do not have the right equipment at school or home, simply click on the link to watch the experiment and then answer the questions below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM9q3RtfE6Y

A fair test

To keep the test fair. You need to: • keep the quantity of water in the cans the same • put the two cans in the same spot in the sunlight • leave the cans in the sunlight for the same amount of time. Procedure

1. Fill cans (1 normal, 1 modified) with an equal amount of water.

2. Place cans in a sunny spot. 3. Check the temperature of can every 30 minutes and records in the observation table

on the next page.

Note – if you do not have thermometer carefully place your hand above the can and see if you feel any heat radiating off the water (see picture above). If you feel heat radiate off the water, it is hot and may burn you. If you feel no heat, the water will either be room-temperature or cold. DO NOT stick your hand directly into the water.

Observations Record the temperate changes to your cans. Note – if you are completing activity based on YouTube clip move on to the Explain section Explain What happened what results did you find? Was your prediction correct? Why/Why not?

What do you need to think about when writing subtraction problems?

We can subtract using a written strategy. First we estimate what the answer will be: 7 842 – 6 151 = around 1 650.We start by subtracting the units: 2 – 1 = 1 unit. We put the unit in the units column.We can’t do 4 tens subtract 5 tens so we need to rename one of the hundreds as a ten. We now have 14 tens which makes 140. 14 tens – 5 tens = 9 tens. We put the 9 in the tens column.As we borrowed one hundred, we now have 7 hundreds left in the hundreds column. 7 hundreds subtract 1 hundred is 6 hundreds. We put 6 in the hundreds column.7 thousands – 6 thousands is 1 thousand. We put 1 in the thousand column.We then check the answer against our estimate. Are the answer and estimate similar?

Grammar Focus: Topic Sentences

Activity: Highlight the Topic Sentence in the following two paragraphs. HINT: One of the topic sentences isn’t the first sentence. 1. Many attributed of dogs’ personalities make them great pets. The first

reason dogs are great pets is because they are often very loyal. Knowing that the family dog is watching out for everyone in the family gives everyone peace of mind. Another great trait of dogs is that they can be very gentle. Even the biggest dog can be calm and careful around a newborn or very small child, though parents need to be very careful. Lastly, dogs can be so friendly that they make guests feel welcome in your home. Some dogs like nothing more than to lay at the feet of a guest.

2. Bullying in high schools and elementary schools is a much discussed topic, yet many parents feel that they don’t know whether their child is being bullied. They just can’t tell. However there are often visible signs that indicate a child is being bullied, and parents should be alert to them. A child may be the object of bullying is he or she comes home from school with unexplained bruises or cuts. Bullying might also be why a child suddenly shows no interest in school work. Another sign is a child’s resistance to talking about school and signs of moodiness or tears upon returning home from school. The sudden onset of insomnia when school starts is yet another indication that a child might be being bullied.

What is a Topic Sentence?

• A topic sentence is often, but not always, the first sentence in the paragraph.

• It tells the MAIN IDEA of the paragraph • It also tells what the author wants to say about the

topic.

Remember that volume refers to the amount of space occupied by an object or substance.Commonly used volume measurements are the cubic centimetre and the cubic metre.

One cubic centimetre is 1 cm long, 1 cm wide and 1 cm high. The symbol we use for cubic cm is cm3.1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm3

One cubic metre is 1 m long, 1 m wide and 1 m high. The symbol we use is m3.1 m × 1 m × 1 m = 1 m3

We can find out the volume of a rectangular prism or cube without counting each block. We just multiply the length by the width by the height.
