Numeracy Grid 1 – Mild Challenge – More Double Numbers

Paint double numbers

Have fun exploring double numbers with paint dots.

I made a rainbow by starting with 7 dots and using the 7 different colours from the rainbow.

Would you like to dive into the learning pit?

Use the double facts you have remembered?

Have a go at investigating double numbers

This time start with an even amount

Think about which double number story you could make

I used 2 egg boxes to make ten frames

I found pompoms and baubles to make double number stories with.

I have also shown the number stories with numicon which I know very few of you would have at home but they help you to see the double number stories in your mind.

Start with even amounts to 10

Move onto even amounts to 20

Maybe some of you would challenge yourselves even further!

Egg Box Volume – Numeracy – Hot

Hello everyone,

Have you had a go at the ‘Hot’ Numeracy Challenge – Egg Box Volume?

The task was to  create a net for an easter egg that is 20 cm high and 8cm wide. The net must have a window shape cut into the front to view the egg through.

Here are some simple and straight forward instructions to help you with this task.

1. Create a net for a 3D Cuboid – If you do not have paper big enough to match the dimensions, feel free to alter the measurements. Use a search engine to help with the drawing of your net.

2. Decorate the net of your Cuboid using Easter images – for example, eggs, Easter Bunny or chicks.

3. Carefully cut out an egg shaped-hole in one of the rectangles.

4. Cut out the Cuboid Net and assemble your Easter box!

If you managed to complete this activity, please share your finished product with your class teacher – through Seesaw or email.
