St. Cuthbert's Primary School Seaham
Hello Year 4 ,
Hope you are all doing well and ready for today’s activities centered around Numeracy!
Your CHALLENGE today is to collate a list of maths activities you’ve completed in the order of the alphabet. I’m going to give you a few ideas below but the rest will be up to you! Make your list in Google Classroom as evidence and include/send photos as well if you can.
A is for Arithmetic.
Boring start you may say but it’s so important to keep practising these skills. Either do a test from a previous week that hasn’t been completed or even better make up a mini test of your own, showing off some of your arithmetic skills!
Or
A is for Angle.
Find right angles around you home and then some that are acute or obtuse.
B is for Baking.
Do some baking today, using practical maths. You’ll get loads of maths words to add to your list – W for the weight of ingredients, maybe using V for the volume of liquids, T for the temperature of your oven and keeping a check on timings using C for clock! So look in the cupboards to see what you’ve got and get cooking.
Or
B is for Bar graph.
Make a graph of the different coins/ notes in your money box or purse. Will this help you to calculate the total amount? C for Calculate T for Total! Got the idea!
J is for Jumping.
Use a tape measure to find our how far you can jump. Have a competition with others in your household!
O is for Obstacle course.
Make a circuit or obstacle course around your house or outside space. Measure how long it takes to complete it! Minutes or seconds? Have a family competition!
W is for Workout.
If space is short then create a Joe Wicks style workout. Count how many repetitions can be done in twenty seconds?
Hope that’s enough ideas to get you started. I bet you’ll have some great ones!
