Numeracy – Lego Time!

Leave a comment

We are all learning about time. Being challenged to do something within a certain amount of time can be great fun!

Warm up with some yoga poses. Can you do at least 5 minutes of yoga each day?

Here are some Superhero Poses.

Many of you are Lego experts! Lego is something you go back to again and again! It is something you love to do!

On our timetable this week there was a column left blank for you to focus on what you LOVE learning to do.

Can you create a Lego challenge for others to complete within a certain amount of time?

Send your drawings, photos, animations, video tutorials to your class teacher and we will feature them on the blog!

This is mine – 30 second challenge – very basic! I’m not an experienced lego builder! I’m sure you can help us all to improve!

Mild – Numeracy – In a minute!

2 Comments

What do you think you can do in a minute?

Have a go at these challenges!

Over the past few weeks we have been learning to add and subtract.

You have used blocks or numicon or buttons or fingers to work out the answer.

Let’s begin to see if we can learn to remember number facts, quickly!

Like a workout for the brain. The more you practise the better you will become at remembering number facts. Your brain will be able to tell you the fact quickly when you need it!

For example as soon as you see

1 + 1 = you know that the answer is 2.

It just pops up in your brain!

The challenge is to see how many answers you can remember in a minute!

In this sway there are sets of cards to help you practise against the clock! Take a moment to study the minute hand on a clock.

  • Doubles
  • Stories of 10
  • Adding on 2
  • Adding on 3
  • Adding on 4 etc.

These are examples of sheets that you could look at to challenge yourself, they don’t need to be printed and filled in

Every now and again have a go at one of the columns or groups of facts to give your brain a mental maths work out!
