Home link challenge 1
Hello everyone, hope you are all well and ready for a wee challenge with your child. Over the next 4 weeks, I will have small numeracy challenges planned that the children can try, either indoors or outdoors. This is a great opportunity to spend quality time with your child.
Measuring and comparing.
Can you assist your child in using different sized pans to fill up your sink or basin?
– How many small pans/ large pans did you use?
– Is the basin or sink full?
– What other items could you use to fill up the sink? – kettle, bottles, jugs
– Could you draw me a picture of the items you used?
I can use the language of capacity – full or empty
I can use non standard items for measuring – hands, feet, blocks, jugs and bottles
I can identify items by size and/or amount – big/small, light/heavy, full/empty from a choice of two.
