We have been working in teams to play a ‘Snowman Drive.’ It’s been great fun and very competitive. Here it is below in case you want to play at home with your family. It’s a good one for the Christmas holidays!!

We have been working really hard with our multiplication calculations. We have been testing our friends through various games and this week we have been using calculators to check our answers. Do you have a calculator at home you could use to investigate some calculations of the 2, 5 or 10 times table?

Circles

This week we have been counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.

Can you recall either of these? Counting in 2’s to 20, 5’s to 50 and 10’s to 100?

Use your 100 square to help you.

We have been learning lots of strategies to multiply. Our new strategy is to use arrays.

We have been busy looking at decade numbers to 100. Can you count in 10’s starting at zero to one hundred?

Try this activity below to see if you can spot the missing numbers.

Mental Maths

We have been looking at doubles e.g. double 5 or 5+5=

Can you recall all your doubles up to 10?

Get someone at home to ask you some questions.

We then looked at near doubles 5+6= (5+5+1) 11

Try these.

4+5=

6+7=

3+4=

7+8 =

8+9=

2+3=

Can you write down all the numbers that add together to make 10? Ask someone to set a timer for you and race against the clock! Remember your switcher calculations!

Have some fun with someone at home and see if you can play these games. If you need a dice or counters please ask and I can give you some home to keep.

We are working really hard to make our writing more detailed and interesting. We have been using a description bubble, focussing on size, shape, colour and number. This has helped us improve our writing so much! Well done!
