As part of our job as Maths champs we have been discussing how we can inspire you all to do maths and numeracy practise that is easy and fun here are some ideas;
Play Around The World – One person in a group asks numeracy questions, and then two others face each other and the first to answer moves onto the next person and they try to keep answering first.
Numeracy C-H-A-M-P-S – to play this one person is asking everyone in turn a numeracy question if you get it wrong then you collect the first letter in the word CHAMPS, if you get second question wrong you collect the next letter and so on and the first person to collect all the letters is out the game and the game starts again.
Maths Splat – This is like Around The World but you have to say splat before you answer otherwise you are out.
Lego/play dough numbers – Make the number given to you in lego or play dough.
Exterminator – A group spread out and then the teacher asks numeracy questions (1 step for an easy and 4 steps for a difficult) if you get your question right you move that number of steps and try to tig someone out the game.
Happy counting.
