Punctuation Graph
Students read their reading book and then tally/count up the number of times they see punctuation (. , "" ABC).
Very good for Guided Reading and editable if you want to add other punctuation : ; () ?!
Number sequencing 1-20
SWF file so open with Internet Explorer or other browsers.
Numbers, ordering, sequencing, game for PC, rotation activity
Children complete challenges in order, sequencing 6 numbers.
1-6
3-8
7-12
10-15
12-17
15-20
Children have a time limit and can progress through 6 simple stages to completion.
More or Less (PowerPoint) activity for Early Maths (Beans/Plants and Eggs/Chicks)
Slides have (1-10) Beans or Eggs on one side the children are asked to count them then predict how many Plants or Chicks will appear. They are then asked to decide if this is more or less.
Slides get progressively harder mostly under 10 but some stretch the children to count to 20 near the end.
Beans - 12 slides - Each slide reveals the seeds which did not grow after children count.
Eggs - 13 slides
This activity was designed for a Reception class who were learning about life cycles, growing beans and hatching chicks, in the spring term.
(Easily adaptable to simplify or extend as needed for your students)
Easter Maths - under 20
Two maths worksheets for reception/Y1 students to count on and add single digits.
Introduction - Children asked to write numbers (0-29) into three rows of eggs.
Challenge 1 - Children asked to add single digits with counter markers to help them count on. Totals all between 5-15.
Challenge 2 - Children asked to fill in missing numbers in simple sums i.e. 3 + ? = 5
Science lesson on floating and sinking
Captain Silver has a problem.
He has to move his treasure but can only build his boat out of silver foil. How much treasure can he safely transport and what is the best design for his boat?
Each student is given a set amount of aluminium foil and a short time to build a boar for Captain Silver. They are asked to predict how much it will hold and test their prediction. The class then reflect on the best designs and make some conclusions as to the best ideas for Captain Silvers challenge.
You will need - Aluminium, Unifix cubes (or similar), a large tank of water/bath/sink.
Beebot prompt and activity resource - directions, control algorithm, computational thinking
Two activity sheets with Bee bot image, control breakdown and challenge space for independent learning.
1 - Sheet with instructions for use and control of Bee bot and a series of developing challenges for children to try.
2 - Sheet with the instructions then space for students or teacher to record their algorithm (instructions) so they can share/compare/hand in their solutions to a variety of challenges set out by the teacher.
Hidden numbers Power point for young Early Maths - Foundation Stage, KS1
Slides 1-20 with the digits covered by four panels - each one dissolves when clicked on. Children can learn interactively with the IWB taking turns to remove panels and trying to guess what number/digits are hiding underneath.
Slides can be reordered to make game reusable and allow for repeated independent learning.
Skills
Problem Solving, Number Sequencing, Counting, Teamwork, Predicting, Number recognition and group play.
