REMOTE TEACHING SESSION: 9.00am – 10.00am daily

Grade 4 students will receive a 1 hour face to face remote teaching session with their teacher each day. These sessions will

be run using Microsoft Teams and will focus on Reading, Writing, Maths or Inquiry.

The link to your child’s Microsoft Teams meeting will be sent to them via Microsoft Teams each morning.

Advice for accessing your child’s Microsoft Teams meeting:

Please log on 5 minutes before the start time.

Ask your child to organise the resources they will need prior to the start time.

If you have any questions or you are not able to access the Microsoft Teams meeting, please refer to the instructions

available on Sentral or contact the school via phone on 03 8766 4000 or email at barton.ps@education.vic.gov.au.

1. Go to the assignments tab on

Teams.

2. Click Persuasive Cold Write,

read the instructions and look at

the prompt.

3. You need to set up in a quiet

spot and handwrite your text,

based on the prompt ‘Should

remote learning be permanent?’

4. Make sure to attach your work

and press turn in to submit.

Support: Complete the task and list the outcome in a table like the one provided below.

Experiment Title: Coin Toss

Outcome Heads

Outcome

Tails

Task: You are going to design an experiment that has equally likely outcomes. Some examples of experiments with equally likely outcomes are:

Rock Paper Scissors

Coin tossing

Rolling a six-sided die

The outcomes in all of these events are equally likely. For example, when tossing a coin it is equally likely you will land on heads as it is tails.

1. Design an experiment with equally

likely outcomes 2. List your outcomes 3. Post your experiment and outcomes

on Teams in your home group channel

4. Comment on someone else’s post and agree/disagree if their

experiment has equally likely outcomes

Example 1:

My experiment is a bottle cap toss. I am going to flip a bottle cap 10 times to determine which side it lands on. The outcomes are:

- Lands on top side - Lands on bottom side

Example 2:

My experiment is rolling a 6 sided die. I am going to roll the die 10 times to determine if rolling an odd or even number is more likely. The outcome are:

- Odd (1, 3, 5,) - Even (2, 4, 6)

Challenge:

Make your experiment a little more complicated! You might choose to roll 2 dice or flip 2 coins.

Calculate the sample space. The sample space is the range of all the possible outcomes for an experiment. You can represent the sample space in a diagram. For example the sample space diagram of rolling a dice and

Up levelling sentences.

The man drove down the

road.

To make this sentence more

engaging, we need to add some

specific details about what’s

happening. Such as:

• Who? Be more specific.

• What? What was he driving?

• Where? Where was he

driving?

• When? When did this

happen?

• Why? Why is this

interesting?

• How? How exactly is it

moving?

Task: Using the experiment you created yesterday, you are to complete the experiment and collect the results. Once you have the results, you are to list the outcomes of the experiment in two ways.

First: (0-1 Probability Scale).

Using the scale below, list the probability of the outcomes.

Second: (Fractions)

Fractions is another unit we can use to describe the probability of an outcome. Using your results from the experiment, label the probability in fractions.

Have a go at making the following

boring sentences more engaging:

He opened the door.

I bought a toy.

The tree was moving.

Share your improved sentences on

your home group channel.

Challenge: Add some figurative

language into your examples to

make them more descriptive. Can

you also try to use some

punctuation to change the structure

of your sentence to make it more

engaging?
