Dear all,

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 here and I can upload them on Twitter with #KeepGlasgowCounting.

Happy Measuring and Baking!

Dr Webster
