Partition 438 Into Hundreds, Tens and Ones Using Numbers. Look at My Example Below to Help You Partition 438 into hundreds, tens and ones using numbers. Look at my example below to help you. In Year 2 we have learnt that we don't always have to partition numbers with hundreds together, tens together and ones together. There are other ways to partition numbers, here are some examples. Fill in the part-whole model with numbers. Use my part-whole model on the right to draw out the dienes for this example. Partition 274 in any way that you would like. You can draw the dienes or if you are feeling confident you can write the numbers. Task 2a: Find six ways that 524 can be partitioned, use numbers for this. If you would like to draw the dienes, you can do this on a separate piece of paper. 524 524 524 524 524 524 Session 3- To be able to show the value of a 3-digit number in more than one way (continuing from last session) Choose one of these numbers and show six ways that it can be partioned: 514, 361, 480, 209 and 57. Session 4- To compare numbers within 1000 using the <, > and = signs The digits can be used in any order! Did you find all of the possibilities? How do you know? Which number is greater? How do you know? Remember! < less than > greater than = equal to Complete this number sentence by adding in the missing symbol. Draw the dienes below! Compare the numbers by filling in the blanks. Compare the numbers by adding the correct symbol. Task 4a- compare two 3-digit numbers verbally using the example below to help you. Example: 179 < 228 One hundred and seventy nine is less than two hundred and twenty eight because it has fewer hundreds. Two hundred and twenty eight is greater than one hundred and seventy nine because it has more hundreds. Two hundred and twenty eight is the greater number. 378 and 143 201 and 210 789 and 876 11 and 211 425 and 654 If you feel that your child needs support with this, you can ask them to draw out the dienes (hundreds, tens and ones) this will help them to visualise the number. Questions based on place value. Humanities- Explorers and Voyagers Session 5: Why are Amelia Earhart’s voyages considered important? Key Knowledge Key Vocabulary Pilot She was the first female pilot to fly solo across the Atlantic Aviator Ocean in 1932. Voyage As a child, Amelia saw the Wright Brothers at a State Fair. She was not interested in flying at a time. Navigation In May 1923 she was the 16th woman in the USA to receive a pilot’s license. In 1930 Amelia set 2 women’s speed records. In 1932 Amelia was the first woman to fly coast to coast. In 1937, she attempted to fly all around the world. Her plane went missing on the home stretch and she was never seen again. Knowledge Quiz: 1. Circle the jobs that Captain James Cook had: 2. Captain James Cook became a cartorapher during the Seven Years War. 3. Captain James Cook created a new set of rules for his crew. Why? 4. Which continent was Captain Cook looking for? 5. Captain Cook was killed by Hawaiians after they kidnapped him: Amelia Earhart was an aviator who is best known for being the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. An aviator is someone who flies planes. Amelia's first "flight" was when she was just seven years old. With the help of Muriel and her uncle she made a homemade roller coaster. After crashing dramatically she told her sister that it "was just like flying". When Amelia was eleven years old she saw one of the Wright Brothers first airplanes at a State Fair. The Wright brothers built the world’s first engine powered aeroplane which could fly – it only flew for 12 seconds but it did fly! Amelia however, had no interest in flying and did not think much of the plane or the Wright brothers at the time. Amelia lived in America in the 1920s. Before this, women had always needed to stay at home, look after the children and have low skilled jobs. However during the war, in the years before, women had needed to do the jobs usually done by men because the men had gone to fight. The women started to work in factories and on farms. They were doing jobs they had never been able to before. Task: How does this compare to the jobs women can do today? Today women can... but back then women... Back then women would... but now they...

She had made history and was the first woman to ever make the flight across the Atlantic Ocean. Earhart was a hero to the people of the United States. They had a parade for her in New York City and she even got to meet the President at the White House. Here are some of Amelia Earhart’s other achievements: 1922: Broke women's altitude record for 14,000 feet. 1928: First woman to fly across the Atlantic. 1928: Wrote a book ’20 hours 40 minutes’ 1930: Set 2 women’s speed records. 1932: First woman to fly solo across the Atlantic 1932: First woman to fly coast to coast 1935: First person to fly solo from LA to Mexico City.

The first attempt to climb it was in 1921 by a British expedition, however they were unsuccessful. Mount Everest is often linked with the local people who live in the valley below, known as Sherpa. They are usually farming people who grazed their animals high up in the mountains. They are excellent guides and assistants to those who wish to climb Everest. Being so high, the summit of Everest is extremely cold. Climbers do not only have to prepare for the cold, but also strong winds.

  • Going up a Mountain
    Going Up a Mountain Going Up a Mountain by ReadWorks Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world. It is located in the country of Nepal. It is 8,848 meters tall. This means it is just over five-and-a-half miles in height. Until 1953, nobody had successfully climbed Mount Everest, though many had tried. Mount Everest has steep slopes. Many climbers have slipped and fallen to their deaths. The mountain is very windy. Parts of it are covered with snow. Many mountaineers would get caught in snowstorms and be unable to climb. The mountain is rocky. Sometimes, during snowstorms, rocks would tumble down the slopes of the mountain. Any climbers trying to go up the mountain might be risking their lives. There is also very little oxygen atop Mount Everest. This is because the oxygen in the air reduces as we go higher. This means that it is difficult for climbers to breathe. The climbers usually take oxygen in cylinders to breathe. If they do take oxygen tanks, they have to carry extra weight on their backs. This slows them down. In 1953, a New Zealand-based climber, Edmund Hillary, and a Nepalese climber, Tenzing Norgay, climbed Mount Everest for the first time. They both took photographs on the peak. They then buried some sweets on the peak, as a gesture to celebrate their climb. But they ReadWorks.org · © 2014 ReadWorks®, Inc. All rights reserved. Going Up a Mountain could not stay for long, because it was windy and snowy. They soon came down. Later, many people asked Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay which of them had reached the peak first.

  • Agon Lost – Or in Disguise? a Commentary
    Physical Culture and Sport. Studies and Research, 2019, 82, 46-52 DOI: 10.2478/pcssr-2019-0011 Agon Lost – or in Disguise? A Commentary Authors’ contribution: Olav Ballisager A) conception and design of the study B) acquisition of data Institute of Scandinavian Physical Culture, Hoerning, Denmark C) analysis and interpretation of data D) manuscript preparation E) obtaining funding ABSTRACT Thanks to John W. Loy one of the recurrent themes in Institute of Scandinavian Physical Culture (ISPC) was “agon“. First, I offer some old Nordic examples on games – possibly with an agonal element. Then I focus on moral and character in order to identify some sort or a vestige of agon and revisit physical culture in terms of “idræt”, an old Nordic word for athletics and sport. Finally, I ask if there is – atavistic or not – in the modern world any glimpse of agonal behavior to be found and appreciated within the three realms or categories, which could be pillars of a physical education program: Nature, combat/competition and aesthetics. Would Edmund Hillary, Nelson Mandela and Pussy Riot qualify into a renewed, more general perception of agon? KEYWORDS agon, ball games, physical culture, physical education In the late 1970s I applied to the Danish Minister of Cultural Affairs, Niels Matthiasen, for a grant to invite North American scholars in sport science – in particular sport sociology and phenomenology – and instructors in modern dance. At that time both areas were quite new in research and teaching in Denmark. The funding was granted and the program of Institute of Scandinavian Physical Culture (ISPC) was founded.

  • Talks on Antarctica: United Nations of the World (English)
    Talks on Antarctica: United Nations of the World (English) Talks on Antarctica, the United Nations of the World Topic: the great continent of ice, wind and snow located at the southernmost end of our planet, surrounded by the Southern Ocean, where the Roaring Forties and Furious Fifties rage. It is an extraordinary nature reserve, one and a half times as big as the United States, devoted to peace and science, and a continent that does not belong to a country. You do not need a passport to land on Antarctica. The great American explorer Richard E. Byrd wrote: “ I am hopeful that Antarctica in its symbolic robe of white will shine forth as a continent of peace as nations working together there in the cause of science set an example of international cooperation”. Therefore: the true United Nations of Earth are down there, on the white continent where the South Pole is found. On 28 October 2016, the creation of the Ross Sea Marine Reserve in Antarctica was announced. It is the largest in the world (one and a half times the size of Europe): the international community has finally become aware of the need to protect the valuable Antarctic marine ecosystems. The Agreement will enter into force on December 1st 2017. WHY ANTARCTICA? 1) The continent is entirely devoted “to peace and science” (Madrid Protocol). It is a nature reserve which does not belong to any country, and is a world heritage site. Researchers and logistics technicians from several different countries work together in peace in Antarctica: 5,000 during the austral summer, and 1,000 in the winter.
