Numeracy Task – 9.30-10.15am
We are participating in Glasgow’s Maths Contest in Sumdog this week. Please log in for 15mins at the start of your numeracy time each day. You can do longer if you want. The more correct answers we get, the further up the leader board we will climb. Good Luck!

Last week you did some work on 3D shape with Mrs Paterson. Let’s recap. Find an object in your house for each of the 3D shapes we have covered in lessons….cube, cylinder, cuboid, cone(this might be tricky, don’t worry if you can’t find one)and sphere(remember this is the one shaped like a ball we had just introduced). Describe the shapes to an adult using the words ‘faces’, ‘corners’ and ‘edges’.

Using some 3D objects from around the house, see if you can build a monster. You could use empty boxes, cardboard tubes, building blocks, tins(don’t jam your fingers between them!), Lego etc. You could even draw a scary face on a piece of paper and stick it on to your monster. Look at your finished monster and count how many of each shape you used. Bring your monster to the Live Check In this afternoon if you can!
