Numeracy recall

Hit the button contains lots of different options and can be used to practise number bonds, times table recall and division facts, all very useful skills to be working on.

If you are looking to practise written addition and subtraction questions, this number generation will help by giving you various numbers which you can add or subtract. Mission 2110 is also good for practising more complex calculations.

7 times table

The week we will be focusing on the 7 times table.

We will be using this video to develop our abilities to quickly and accurately count up in 7.

We will also be working on developing concrete and pictorial aspects of the 7 times table.

Pupils should continue to work on the recall of all multiplication facts at home as this reinforces their learning within school.

 

Place Value

I have extended the range of whole numbers I can work with and having explored how decimal fractions are constructed, can explain the link between a digit, its place and its value.

Place Value Playing Cards 

– Remove the King, Queen and Jack from the deck, you may also wish to remove the tens.

– Decide on the place value you are working towards for example Thousands.

 

– You and a partner, select the appropriate number of cards each.

– Shout reveal, you then have 3 seconds to make the biggest number you can. Largest number wins the cards played.

I.e. you have 4, 2, 7, 1, once revealed these numbers would be reordered to make 7421 (seven thousand, four hundred and twenty 1). 

This can be adapted to within any place value, similarly it could be about the smallest value created.
