How Did My Family Use Numeracy and Maths Today?

• • The purpose of this task is to develop awareness of the many ways in which we all use numeracy and mathematics in our everyday lives
  • Please discuss with your child the ways in which each member of the family uses maths skills e.g. telling the time to keep appointments, calculating the cost of purchases or measuring ingredients for a meal, and encourage your child to think of as many different ways as possible
  • Pupils are asked to record some (at least 3) of the ways they and their family use maths this week. This can be by writing, drawing, taking photographs, making a poster or booklet, writing a story for classmates or younger pupils to read, writing a playscript to act out in school, by using digital technology to record their findings or any other way

• Please feel free to be as creative as possible, the key message to remember is Maths is Fun!!Please return completed homework to the class teacher by Monday 17/9/18
