Probably one of the most difficult PRACTICAL lessons to plan and execute, BUT it is doable!
My suggestion: Choose a sunny day (as you will need to do this lesson on the playground).
Bring in a variety of small/medium-sized plastic containers from home (about 10) and label them (1 - 10). Bring in lots of large buckets too … if you have a class of 30, you will need 8 buckets. You could ask the children to bring in some from home too!
Arrange the small/medium-sized containers in a large hoop on the playground.
Give each group of 4 children a bucket of water … YES, a bucket!! Don’t panic!
Give each group a small and large measuring cylinder and a small and large measuring jug.
.
**Activity: **
.
Using the equipment provided, each group must choose a plastic container (from the hoop) to estimate then measure (using their equipment).
Record estimates and actual measurements on the sheet provided.
.
Extension Activities:
.
Calculate the DIFFERENCE between the estimate and actual measurement for each container.
FUN FUN FUN: You could always have a water fight at the end!

A very simple game of bingo for younger learners.
No additional resources required.
Just ask your student’s to write 5 random numbers between 1 and 30 (in pencil) in the game grid provided. There is space for 5 games.
Then call out a number (between 1 and 30) and if a student has that number, they cross it off (make sure they use a different coloured pen to cross out their numbers) to avoid cheating.
The first person to cross out all their numbers shouts BINGO! They win a prize, sticker or house point etc.
You can make this game more Maths focused by calling out the numbers like, ‘What is the total of 3 and 5?’ Anybody with the number 8 crosses it off and so on. It’s up to you if you want to play it like that.
2 worksheets attached - 1 easier activity and 1 more challenging.
Answer sheet provided.
Suitable for 6 - 11 years (depending on ability)
Task: Write down the factors for each number.
Teaching point: Prime numbers only have 2 factors: 1 and the number itself.
Add and Subtract to 20 - Loop card game!
20 cards in total.
Differentiation: Put children who are not so confident (adding and subtracting numbers to 20) in pairs so that they can work together.
.
Game rules:
.
Start with any number e.g. 9 (highlighted in grey at the top of ‘one’ of the cards)
The child holding this card must say the question written on their card (making sure everybody can hear) e.g. ‘What is 4 + 3?’
The person holding the answer says,* ‘I am 7’*
The game continues until you end up with the same person who started (hence why it’s called a loop card game)
