CLIC Targets for P1 Term 3 Week 8

C – counting

For counting we are going to develop our understanding of the numbers to 10. Try comparing or ordering some numbers. There is a Top Marks game to try for ordering. Can you make adding sums for any number to 10? E.g. 7 is 5+2 or 3+4 or 1+6. Use objects you have at home to help you. Or you can compare two numbers using the greater than/less than symbols.

L – learn its

Learn its are number facts which we try to remember and quickly recall without working out the answer. We now have to remember the doubles to 5 –

1+1=2  2+2=4  3+3=6  4+4=8  5+5=10

You can also practise these at home. These facts are done orally and not written down at this stage.

I – It’s Nothing New

These are facts like our learn its but instead of asking What is one add one? we say What is double one?

Can you double 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5?

C – Calculations

This week we will focus on subtraction.

Can you take away and find out how many are left?

Use objects you have at home and make a group to take away from. Try using different amounts to start with and take away different amounts.

Here are some links to games for improving number skills and video clips on greater than/less than.
