P1 Tuesday 12th May – Numeracy

Hello again!

Tune in to Elevenses with David Walliams at our regular milk and story time of 11.00am

http://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/

  • A number bond to 10 means a pair of numbers that give the total 10.
  • For example, 5 + 5 =10, 8 + 2 = 10, 4 + 6 = 10. 
  • Let’s warm up for today by joining in with this “Friends of Ten” song to help us learn the number bonds for 10

  • Today we are going to try to identify all the pairs of numbers that make 10
  • How many different ways can you think of to make 10?
  • Try to learn the rhyme from this power point to help you remember the pairs

Number bonds to 10

  • Now look at the worksheet below and record the calculations with your answers in your jotter

  • You could use the interactive Rekenrek to help or use 10 cubes, counters, beads etc

To finish off, make the pipes add up to 10 and turn the wheel to Save the Whale in this game.

P1 Friday 8th May – Numeracy

Hello again! How many of those Tricky Words could you read?

If you have a big brother or sister why don’t you join them for our school Assembly at 11.00am on Teams.

If not, listen to a story with Elevenses by David Walliams and catch up with the Assembly Power Point Miss Clarkson will post on the blog later.

http://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/

We have been looking at money and coins over the last few weeks.

Today we are going to try to work out how to give change from 10p

Watch and listen to this short clip.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p017tzx0

  • To work out how much change we should get, we have to use our subtraction skills
  • If I had 10p and bought a sweet for 9p how much change should I get?
  • 10p – 9p = 1p

 

  • Use the Power Point below.
  • Move the correct number of 1p coins that is spent on the toys into the purse to identify the correct change
  • DO NOT use the power point as a slide show or you won’t be able to move the coins
  • Draw each toy in your jotter and record the subtraction calculation beside each one e.g. 10p – 6p = 4p or draw the correct amount of 1p coins beside each one

Change from 10p

Finish off by playing this game to work out the correct change

Thank you for all your hard work this week. Have a lovely weekend and see you on Monday morning!
