Maths Time
Let's start today's Maths activity by telling a grown up the numbers you can see below.
0 5 10 9 12 8 3 15 1
Super! This week, at Maths Time, we are going to practice our adding and taking away skills, but today, you will only need your adding brains switched on. We will do the first sum for you, because we are going to show you a brand new way to find the answer. So, the first sum is 4+3= and today, we are going to show you how to use a number line to help us find the answer.
First, we find the first number from the addition sum (4), and put a circle around it, like this:
Next, we look at the second number in the sum (3), and then, we jump forwards this amount of spaces along the number line, like this:
The number it lands on, is the answer to your sum. So, 4+3= 7.
Now, its your turn, complete the activity in your busy books.
3+1=
4+2=
5+4=
6+4=
Parents: To make this activity easier for your child, draw the number lines in their busy books.
WOW! Tremendous Maths Work Reception.
