Maths: angles, co-ordinates and mental maths practice

We looked at angles and compared them.  The angle is the amount of turn between the two lines.  It does not matter how long or short the lines are.  The two angles shown on the board are exactly the same.

 We revised co-ordinates.   We remembered to go ALONG first, then UP.  By colouring the squares with those co-ordinates we found the age of the turtle.  How many years before he celebrates his centenary?

We practised mental maths with time limits for the questions.  Questions 1 to 10 were done in 5 seconds.  Questions 11 to 15 were done in 10 seconds.

At home please do the two fractions revision sheets I gave you (sheets 60 and 61).  Enjoy doing your homework.
