Monday's maths
Date: 4th May 2020 @ 9:49am
Hello,
Well I am very pleased to say it is a sunny Monday morning. I don't know about you but I woke up really early today because the sun was shining brightly through my window. I hope it says sunny all day because it always makes me feel happy and ready for learning. Before you start your maths today I want you to do some counting exercises. Let's get out brains working this morning!
Counting exercises
1. Star jumps- count forwards from 0-50
2. Hopping- count forwards in steps of 2 from 0-30
3. Jumping with 2 feet together- counting forwards from 0 to 100 in steps of 10
4 Balancing on 1 leg- count backwards from 30 to 0
5. Body twists- count backwards from 100 to 0 in steps of 10
Today I want you to write the long date. Make sure you underline it with a ruler! Then I want you to have a go at drawing a number lime from 0-30. See if you can copy this. if you have a printer you can print one out from the file at the bottom of the page labelled number line.
Today we are going to use a number line to solve addition word problems. Remeber when we add amounts together the number gets bigger and we move fo the right on a number line.
Read this problem below
Miss wolfenden buys 10 apples from Tesco. She then drives to Morrisons and buys 6 more apples. How many apples does she have altogether?
