Leopard Class Week 1- 20.4.20

Weekly Maths ideas

Weekly Maths ideas Good morning, On the following slides are some suggested maths activities, for a week of fun maths learning. These skills link to our year 2 maths curriculum and are areas that we would be looking at and consolidating in school. The children will have had experience already of these skills in class, so it is an opportunity to strengthen and continue to build on these. Many of this weeks skills could be verbal activities and games and can be done at different times of the day, in the garden, whilst your cooking tea or even at bath time. Have fun and enjoy. Any problems please do contact me via email. I look forward to hearing about how it goes. Mrs Sealy leopards@bratton.wilts.sch.uk

Maths- Warm up ideas

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/daily10

As a warm up before each session the children could use the ‘Daily 10’ game to practise their mental maths skills. I recommend the children playing on level 1 or 2 or 3 for a challenge. You are able to select which skill they practise by changing this along the top tab. The children are familiar with this website

Maths- Lesson 1- To read and write numbers in words and numerals

Lesson 1- in maths I would like the children to practise writing numbers in words and words as numbers. This is a good opportunity for the children to practise correctly forming their numbers and spelling the number word correctly. For example 24 would be written as twenty four and sixty five would be written as 65.

Ideas for practising the skill: -Roll a dice twice then generate a two digit number, ask the children to write the number in words. -Use number cards from 0-9 and get the children to pick two numbers to generate a two digit number -Simply give your child a number to write in words - You could write a number in words for your child to then write as a number.

Challenges: Challenge 1- Using numbers up to 50- write these as words and numbers Challenge 2- Using numbers up to 100 and above when ready- write these as words and numbers Challenge 3- Using numbers above 100s and challenge writing in the 1000s. Write these as words and numbers

Example of layout: 23= twenty three 46= forty six Two hundred and thirty three= 233 Fifty six= 56

Maths-Lesson 2-To be able to count on in 10s from any number

Lesson 2- In maths I would like the children to practise counting in 10s from any number. For example 4, 14, 24, 34 or 88, 78, 68. 58. Write an example down and ask them if they notice anything about the numbers. Explain that the ones number stays the same but the tens number always changes. E.g. in 34 the ones number is the 4 and tens number is the 3. So it is the 4 that would always stay the same. This could be a verbal fun session today or written down. Activity ideas: - You could give your child any number e.g. 5 and ask them to count forwards and

backwards in 10s from that number. So they would respond 5, 15, 25, 35 etc. or 105. 95, 85, 75.

- You could give them a number written down and ask them to write the next 6 numbers counting up or down in 10s.

- If the children are finding this tricky you could simplify it by counting in multiples of 10- e.g. 10, 20, 30 etc. or 80, 70, 60. Ask them to start from different multiples of 10 to mix it up.

Maths lesson 3- To be able to count in 10s, 2s, 3s and 5s

Lesson 3- Lesson 3 involves the children verbally practising the skills of counting in multiples of 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s forwards and backwards. E.g.- 2, 4, 6, or 8, 6, 4 or 3, 6,9, 12 Activities: -Throw a ball to each other taking it in turns to say the next multiple of what you are counting in e.g. one person says 3 the next says 6, and keep the pattern going. -They could practise writing it down starting at different multiples e.g. 5, 10, 15 or 12, 14, 16 -To challenge the writing element you could write a pattern with missing multiples e.g. 3,6….,12…..15,18…. -There are also some games on the internet or Mathletics that link to counting in multiples. https://www.ictgames.com/mobilePage/duckShoot/index.html https://themumeducates.com/counting-in-2s-5s-and-10s-in-year-1/

Maths- Lesson 4- To use previous lesson counting in 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s to learn a times table Lesson 4- I would like the children to use their knowledge of counting in 2s, 3s, 5s, and 10s to start to learn one of the times table. You could choose to learn one of the time tables e.g. 2s- it would be worth while writing the times table down e.g. 1x2=2 2x2=4 etc. to see if they notice anything about the pattern and can relate it back to the previous lesson counting in multiples. Practise saying it aloud in a silly voice, singing it, hiding one of the answers to see if they can work it out, ask them random mental maths question e.g. what is 3x2= what are 4 2s etc. Every opportunity you get ask them a tables question. Stick the calculations on post –it notes around the house, every time they see a post-it note they have to say the calculations and answer. BBC super movers website also have some useful times table songs. https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/supermovers Below are some website games. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/hit-the-button https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/306/Maths-Fishing-Multiplication

Maths- Lesson 5 I have put a task on Mathletics for the children to complete- it will be available on Friday morning until Sunday evening. This will be a good way for me to see how the children are developing in these skills and how and where I can further support their learning. The task incorporates all learning from the suggested 4 lessons. Have fun. Well done on your maths learning this week.
