During the lockdown every Wednesday and Friday ‘Glasgow Times’ newspaper publishes a range of learning activities. Last Wednesday there were Glasgow Counts activities, on Friday P.E. challenges and yesterday the focus was on Literacy.
I have uploaded here the maths activities from last week, you will see there are some Measuring, Baking and Outdoor tasks. If you have a younger or older sibling, you can have a go with him/her; choose one or two and complete them.
If you want, you can post some pictures on your Google Classroom and I can upload them on Twitter with #KeepGlasgowCounting.

The first one is called Five Circles where you have to place the numbers 1,2,3,4 and 5 in the circles so that each line has the same total.
The second puzzle is called Pentadd where the numbers in the blue shapes are the sums of the letters in the red circles. What are A, B, C, D and E?
The last three puzzles are Hexagon Puzzles with increasing numbers to add or subtract. The last one is with decimal numbers. Can you solve all of them?

Today is International Creativity and Innovation Day when we celebrate problem-solving in the context of economic, social and sustainable development. The purpose for World Creativity and Innovation Day is to remind and encourage people to use their creativity to make the world a better place and to make their place in the world better too.
21st April, the day before Earth Day (22nd April), was chosen as World Creativity and Innovation Day to emphasize the importance of using new thinking to create a decent life for all on a sustainable planet.
I have attached a word problem relating to the invention of hopscotch.
