A Pugs of the Frozen North themed worksheet that I used for a week-long homework task based on subtraction using the column method.
There are four challenges in increasing difficulty that see children securing more and more desirable food for the pugs when Shen is abandoned with them on the frozen ocean.
Hi there!
Here's another lesson pack for you, this time with map reading and using grids in Maths and Geography.
The Thursday's lesson is pretty intense- it involves a geocaching type event, with the class hunting around the playground using their own map of the playground that they have gridded up.
Only thing you'd need to do is provide a map of your playground, or even classroom.
LO's, success criteria and learning outcomes outlined.
Lots of activities!
Enjoy!
