Answer to Math Quiz (1)


What is the missing number?
Wow, I am glad you get the right answer. The answer is 18.
How to get it:
Multiply numbers outside the + sign. That means, take 6 x 5. It gives you 30 which can be found between the numbers in the diagram. Try 8 multiplied by 3. It gives you 24. Hence, to get the answer, you need to multiply 6 and 3.

Conjunctions

Hi Girls,

How has your holiday been so far?

Do you still remember what we have learnt in class about conjunctions?
Take a minute to list down all the conjunctions we have learnt so far. (and, so, but ……) Can you think of more?

Let us do a little revision before we proceed to the quiz.
There are three factsheets. Go through each of the factsheet.

Conjunctions join two short and simple sentences to make a compound sentence.

Try these games.
There are three parts to the game:
- Is this a compound sentence?
- Make compound sentences
- Putting texts into compound sentences
