Must Haves: Past tense, third person, paragraphsWoosh! The eye-popper whizzed past the firework maker’s daughter. “Father, father, look what I have made!” she roared over the screech of newly lit fireworks. “What a fine smoke-swirler you have made. One day, when you are married you can tell your children all about it,” he replied. The firework maker’s daughter hung her head and walked away dragging her feet.“You won’t be a firework maker forever, you need to get married,” she mocked her father under her breath.

Crackle. A big-banger fizzled out before it even reached the sky. “I’ll never impress my father with this nonsense!” she mumbled throwing the disappointing firework to the ground. Tears rolled down her filthy face onto the muddy floor. She felt like the world was against her but this did not stop her. She picked up a handful of rainbow-drops and sizzle-makers and lit them. The colourful, sparkly display before her eyes left her breathless. Could this be the one?

Ahem. Her father crept into the workshop and made his presence known. He wanted to tell her how proud he was of her. Her matted, scruffy hair was across her face as she carefully focused on the explosion-maker in her tired hands. “Darling daughter, please let me help you become the firework maker you were meant to be,” whispered the father. She dropped the firework onto the workbench, ran towards him and hugged him so tight he felt he might burst.

If the words are a little difficult to begin with, try these first:

Number factsThis week please focus on learning number facts for the numbers 1-5.First - discuss all the different ways you can make the numbers 1-5 e.g.1 = 1 + 02 = 1 + 1 or 2 + 03 = 1 + 2 or 2 + 1 or 3 + 0Next – See the number facts grid – do all of these things to the numbers 1-5 e.g. 1 + 10 = 11, 1 – 10 = -9, 1 x 10 = 10 etc

Multiplication facts – Times Table Script:This week please focus on the 4 times table! Always work out what the 1st and 10th multiple first! Here’s how to work out each multiple:1. Which times table are we learning? That’s the 1st

multiple!2. Double the 1st multiple to get the 2nd multiple!3. Add the 1st multiple to the 2nd to get the 3rd multiple!4. Double the 2nd multiple to get the 4th multiple!5. Half the 10th multiple to get the 5th multiple!6. Double the 3rd multiple to get the 6th multiple!7. Add the 1st multiple to the 6th to get the 7th multiple!8. Double the 4th multiple to get the 8th multiple!9. Subtract the 1st multiple from the 10th to get the 9th multiple!10. Multiply the 1st multiple by 10 to get the 10th multiple!11. Add the 1st multiple to the 10th to get the 11th multiple!12. Add the 2nd multiple to the 10th to get the 12th

multiple!

Maths 23.03 – Formal Column Addition – With Exchanges!

If your child finds this tricky start them off with calculations that don’t need exchanges (all top and bottom digits will add together to make 9 or less).e.g.

If you feel like your child needs more challenge give them two four-digit numbers to add together! e.g. 2635 + 5937

Maths 25.03 – Formal Column Subtraction – With Exchanges!

If your child finds this tricky start them off with calculations that don’t need exchanges (all top

digits are greater than the bottom digits).e.g.

If you feel like your child needs more challenge give them two four-digit numbers to subtract! e.g. 7294 - 3654
