Maths in Week 9

 

We have done lots of practical, hands on maths activities this week.  We started with 'rocket maths'.  Mostly working in pairs, the students needed to find the answer the addition problem by adding the number on the body of the rocket with a number on the tip of the rocket, and then finding the answer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

1B spent time adding numbers on pegs and writing the answers, adding dominoes, and hiding counters under a plate and working out how many there were. 

 

We also played a Lego game that involved rolling a die to move forward and collect Lego pieces.  The children were asked to work out the difference between their own stack of Lego pieces and that of their partners, during and at the end of the game.
