Leave a comment

Hello Primary 7 🙂 Here are the numeracy tasks for the week,  you do not need to complete all tasks, simply choose the tasks that are of interest to you and remember you can also look through all of the previous posts and complete some tasks you haven’t already done or use some of the websites that have already been posted.

NUMERACY TASKS

  1. GENERATE YOUR OWN BOARD NUMBER using the Mathsbot Question Generator  https://mathsbot.com/questionGenerator

The page will look like this at the top and you can choose how many groups of questions you get. You can start with 1 group of 5-10 questions then build up to more.

Question Generator – 1  Then select a topic from the drop down box – for example Arithmetic: Four Operations then choose the level of difficulty (0 being the easiest and 10 being the hardest).  Then select the time limit – start with 10-15 minutes and then click on Create Questions.

2. COUNTDOWN  – Can you reach the target number? The challenge is to use the numbers available and the four standard operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) to hit the target.  Each number can only be used once but it may not be necessary to use all the numbers.    https://nrich.maths.org/6499

3. MATHS CALENDARS  –Please use the Maths Calendars for some revision and further challenge.

1st Level will be revision and if you have a younger sibling at home you could even teach them how to do it – remember teaching others helps us to recall 90% of what we learn! The 2nd level is what we will have been doing in class and the 3rd level you will have done bits of, so don’t worry if you are not sure of all of the 3rd level questions.
 4.  TOPMARKS DAILY  10 – work on your mental maths skills, choose your level (6 is the hardest) and choose the area you wish to work on, for example, multiplication then select the question interval.  https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/daily10
5. PODCAST MATHS QUIZ – (You may be asked to sign up to BBC to access this, ask an adult at home – it’s just an email address and then create a password, I just set up an account for myself). 

You will need your jotter/paper and a pencil – listen to the podcast, there are various questions and then the answers are given too.  The last round is Target Number, the same as we play in class.  Keep a score of your points! Let me know your scores by commenting on this post. Good Luck!   https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b03g6w05

6. Corbett Maths Worksheets  – Please complete some of the worksheets on Corbett Maths 5 a day – you do not need to print the worksheet, simply write the question in your jotters and work it out.

Start on the 1st June and begin to work through them, you do not need to complete all of it in one day!  There are 4 levels of difficulty ranging from Bronze to Platinum (most difficult). Please do not worry if there is a question you are unsure of.

Here is the link to the June questions:   https://corbettmathsprimary.com/2019/12/03/printer-friendly-5-a-day-june/

Here is where you can find the answers, please have a go at working out the answer before checking the answers. You may wish to complete one day, correct it and then move onto the next day.
7. SUMDOG – There is a Dundee Sumdog Competition that I have entered the class into, it starts on Friday 19th June at 8am.   https://www.sumdog.com/user/sign_in
8.  NUMBER BONDS GAME – Write down a 2 digit number and who you are playing against has to figure out the number bond to 100. For example, 65 is the number written down, the answer is 35 because 65 + 35 = 100.
Further Challenge – Try number bonds to 1000.
More challenge – number bonds to 10,000
