Read the following carefully.

“This is hard work, but it is worth it,” thought Gary. He grabbed some nails and wood and kept hammering. He thought about the new pet that mum was bringing home. She had said that they could not have a pet until Gary built a place for it to live.

When Gary was finished, he wrote ‘Snoopy’ above the door. Then he put the house under a tree in the shade. Just then, Mum pulled into the driveway. Gary heard, “Ruff, ruff.’ Gary showed Mum what he had built. Mum smiled and said, “You have done a great job!”

LANGUAGE ARTS Boys and Girls, I hope you remember the types of sentences looked at in the last lesson! Today the focus is on The Parts of a Sentence

Every sentence has a subject and a predicate.

Look at the sentence below each picture. Each sentence expresses a complete thought. Each sentence has a verb (an action or doing word) and a subject (the doer of the action).

To find the subject, first look for the verb. Then ask yourself who or what before the verb.

The answer is the subject. Everything else is the predicate.

On the cover this week

The subject is the naming part of the sentence; the predicate is the telling part.

For Your Information - some verbs do not show an action.

For example: is

are

has

have

was

were

Add a suitable predicate to each subject below to make a complete sentence.

1. The entire road ________________________________________________ 2. The puppies ___________________________________________________ 3. We _________________________________________________________ 4. _________________________________________________ the athletes.

5. Mother __________________________________________________________________________ 6. The lady and her son _______________________________________________________________ Make sentences by adding a suitable subject to each predicate.

1. _________________________ sanitised their hands carefully.

2.

_________________________ were looking for the lost puppy.

3. _________________________ has a hole in it.

4. ________________________ am feeling very tired today.

5. ________________________ sells many fruits and vegetables.

6. _______________________ sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to me.

Sometimes the subject is not mentioned or written in the sentence, but it is understood.

For example: Catch the ball, please!

This is a sentence. It expresses a complete thought. The subject You (referring to someone) is understood even though it is not said or written.

The sentence means (You) Catch the ball, please!

Circle the complete subject and underline the predicate in each sentence The first one is done for you.

MATHEMATICS Last week we looked at the value of digits. Do you remember?

EXPANDING NUMBERS

Today will use total value as we write numbers in a longer way.

Writing the number 352 really means that we have the total of 300 + 50 + 2.

We have written the number in a longer way to show the value of each of its digits. We say we have expanded the number or written it in expanded form.

A number written is its expanded form is worth the same written in its short form.

Can you expand the following? The first one is done for you.

Read the following passage carefully.

There were once two brothers who were very different from each other. The older brother, though rich, always wanted more. The younger brother was not rich, but he was happy with what he had.

One day the younger brother found a sparrow with a broken wing. He took it home and nursed it back to health. When it was time for the sparrow to fly away, it said, “You showed me great kindness, yet expected nothing in return. Please take this pumpkin seed. Plant it in your garden and wait for it to grow and ripen.” When the pumpkins ripened, they contained gold, silver, and diamonds.

News of his brother’s sudden fortune reached the older brother. When he heard what had happened, he took out a slingshot, shot a sparrow and broke its wing. He took the bird home and nursed it while thinking, “The sooner you are better, the sooner I get my reward.”

When the bird was better, it gave the older brother a pumpkin seed. The seed sprouted into a vine, but the vine did not grow along the ground—it grew up into the sky. “I shall climb the vine and collect my reward,” said the older brother. He climbed the vine all the way to the sky. As soon as he reached the sky, the vine disappeared.

COMPREHENSION

Read the following passage carefully: I was more excited than I had ever been before. Maybe this was a good sign; sometimes excitement is easily transformed into success. I hoped with all my heart and soul that this would have been one of those occasions.

Some people may laugh at me, some may even criticize me, but most may forgive the thoughts of a young and innocent mind. As I sit and relive the experience, I take a long and hearty laugh at myself. Now, at my ripe old age of thirty-two I can fully understand what is meant by, “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”.

It was early in the morning when I happened to walk past the meeting room. My curiosity skyrocketed when I heard the chairman suggesting that he did not agree with the decision to open the West Gate. He stated quite clearly that if this was done, Sam Cuchie and The Duppy would rush in.

No one got to the park earlier than I did. I had to see these two men. As most of the spectators peacefully and orderly entered the other gates, a large crowd gathered just outside of West Gate. I drew closer to the group. Sam and The Duppy had to be there.

Bang! The gate was flung open and everyone rushed in as though chaos was the ruler of the day. I looked left; I looked east, west, north and south, but my subjects were nowhere to be seen. I felt so disappointed!

Now I smile as I recall the incident -Sam Cuchie and The Duppy…… What a way to refer to the uninvited and unwanted!

Twenty years of life has changed nothing for me.

Now answer the following questions carefully. Make sure you use correct grammar and pay attention to your spelling.

1.

According to the passage, where was the narrator when he first heard of Sam Cuchie and the Duppy? ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________

2. What did the narrator hope for on the day he went to the park? ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ NATION WORKBOOK

What information from the passage suggests that the narrator was extremely keen and excited on the day he visited the park? _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________ 7.

ADDITION Addition is the process of finding the total, or sum, by combining two or more numbers.

The two or more numbers being added together are called addends. The total of the two numbers is called the sum.

THE LANGUAGE OF ADDITION In Mathematics, there are certain words and phrases which tell the operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) needed to find the answer. It is very important to know these words and phrases.

Below are some words and phrases which prompt you to add.

Take careful note of the language in each sum before calculating.

1. Find the sum of 3 189, 398 and 7.

SUBTRACTION In mathematics, subtraction is the process by which an amount is taken away, or subtracted, from another amount.

Basically, there are three parts to a subtraction sum:

The minuend: The number or amount from which some other number or amount is taken.

The subtrahend: The number or the amount being taken from the original amount.

The difference: What is left after subtraction.

LANGUAGE OF SUBTRACTION Like addition, subtraction also has its own language. Do you remember ?

From __take __

How many are left?

Decrease __ by__

What is the difference between ___ and ____

How many remain

Discuss with your teacher some other words or phrases which say to subtract.

COMPARING NUMBERS Which of these numbers is larger? 89 or 98 We know that 89 is made up of 8 tens and 9 ones 98 is made up of 9 tens and 8 ones When we compare 2-digit numbers, we start by looking at the digit in the tens place.

9 tens is greater than 8 tens, so 98 is greater than 89 Special symbols are used to show if a number is greater than ( >) , less than (<) or equal to (=) another So the above example may be written 98 > 89 The bigger number is always at the open end of the sign while the point always points to the smaller number.
