Dear Parent/s Your child is working towards the Level of our ‘Diamond Dash’ maths challenge! Turquoise They will need to practise and consolidate their understanding of the following skills. Objective Example question Activity ideas 6 & 8 facts of 48 ÷ 6 = multiplication and 6 x 8 = division. Addition and 80 - 39 =____ subtraction of near 40 + 31 = _____ multiples of 10 to any 2-digit number ‘Near NB multiples of ten are numbers that are close to a number in the ten times table eg 41 is only 1 away from 40. To use these, round the number to the nearest multiple of ten to make addition/subtraction ‘put easier. Don’t forget to back’ anything you took away when you rounded! Number pairs that 39 +_____ =100 total 100 100 - = 24 30 & 40 facts of 40 x 9 = multiplication/division 160 ÷ 40 = 4 minutes 10 seconds For the test they will be given to answer 46 questions.
