Today's Lesson Resources
Maths
L.I: Mentally add and subtract from 4-digit and 3-digit numbers using place value. (All)
L.I: Compare and order numbers, using < and > signs. (Extra support)
Starter:
Following from yesterdays session, it's time to test your place value knowledge. Just like when we play shoot the sheriff. Can you correctly identify the Thousands, Hundreds, Tens and Ones in each number?
Round each of these numbers to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000.
For example: 4552 = 4550, 4600, 5000.
- 8765
- 5678
- 1234
- 4321
- 9876
- 6789
Extra support - round these numbers to the nearest 10.
1. 13
2. 18
3. 24
4. 57
5. 85
6. 96
The next few questions are 'hardly any work’ additions and subtractions. These are super easy as it usually only involves changing a couple of digits or doing a little counting back or counting on in our heads.
Solve 4020 + 304 on your page. How did you do it? What was your answer?
All we had to do was add each place value, so all that changed in the first numbers was the 0 in the hundreds (changed to 3 hundreds) and the 0 in the ones (changed to 4). The thousands and the tens stayed the same.
Now try these using the same method...
7632 – 602 =
8302 + 80 =
4009 + 3980 =
5964 - 904 =
