HOW WILL IT WORK?The children will be allocated a maths game to take home. This will be recorded by a member of staff in our lending library book.The children need to bring their games back with their homework books on Wednesday.A member of staff will sign the pack back in once the game is returned and we will check all the parts of the game to make sure all components and resources are returned in the condition they were lent out in to ensure they can be continually enjoyed by all.May be a cost of £2 for missing, lost or damaged components that cannot be re-used.Slide7
HOW WILL I RECORD IT?These homework games are very practical and your child may not need to record anything in their books. However, we would like you to write a comment in your child’s homework book stating which game you have played, the duration of time played for and a comment to let us know how your child found it. You could take a photo of your child playing the game and put it in your book/facebook page if you would like to. Or even get the children to tell us how much they enjoyed playing them! Slide8Slide9
HARDER:The number on the dice you roll are how many tens you have.Eg 3 and 430 + 40 =70Place a counter on 7 dots- 7 tens.Why are the dots arranged the way they are? (Eg 11 is the same as 5+5+1)
Easier: Make 12.Roll a dice- Which one can you never place a counter on? Why?
Ideas?
Addition, counting, number bonds, place value, even x tables! (10s)Slide10
