Numeracy Grid challenge – Mental Maths activities – Spicy Level but suitable for all

Have you managed to do any maths this week. Don’t forget all those practical tasks you are doing at home already use maths in them. We have finally found the time to bake in the Flockton house and we are playing Monopoly which is getting a little heated at times!!!

Some teachers may have some Sumdog activities for  those of you that use it in class but feel free to try out other maths apps and websites as well as your practical activities such as weighing or measuring.

Here are a few suggestions –

‘Daily 10’, you can chose all sorts of areas of maths and change the challenge level (Free online)

Multiplication tables – ‘DK Multiplication’ is a hit in our house (Free app)

Carol Vorderman is providing maths tutorials online for those working at the Hot stage.

Most pupils should be familiar with ‘Topmarks’ games (Free online)

P3 love BBC Supermovers, this has songs to dance to and includes everything from Addition to Multiplication. It’s also a little easier than Joe Wicks!!!

We all have our favourite games but leave a comment to share your favourite maths related game (Virtual or not) We might all be reminded of some favourites.

Play Sumdog with Mr Reid and Miss Deans – Spicy/Hot – Numeracy

Good morning everyone

If your child has a Sumdog account, they will be able to play with Mr Reid and Miss Deans between 12pm – 1pm today.

Mr Reid will be playing – Animals

Miss Deans will be playing – Cycle Race 

Each game will start on a 5 minute interval, meaning that the first game will start at 12pm, then 12.05pm, 12.10pm etc.

When selecting ‘Who do you want to play against?’ – Select ‘Class’.

We have added every teacher to each class, so we should all be able to play together!

We look forward to playing Sumdog with you all.

PE with Joe Wicks

As my P3s know I love a ‘brain break‘ and this one was just what I needed today.  At 9am every weekday morning Joe Wicks has promised to upload a live workout to keep our spirits high and fitness levels up.  My son and I had a great time exercising together and hearing about all the countries around the world that were working out with us.  You can find the workouts on Body Coach Youtube channel.  This morning over 800 000 households around the world joined in! Let us know if you have been doing anything to keep your body and mind healthy.
