Primary 5a will be celebrating Maths Week Scotland through a variety of different areas of the curriculum. They will also hear from speakers talking about money.

Pupils can get involved at home by exploring how numeracy skills are used every day.

Perhaps they could help by making dinner – weighing ingredients, measuring volume and time, chopping vegetable into appropriate shapes and measurements, applying knowledge of time to know when dinner will be ready.

Also there is a national Sumdog challenge which they can participate in (logins are in the front of their homework jotters).
