What’s included? This download includes x7 sheets in portrait orientation to investigate which numbers are odd and even from 1 to 10. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. This resource could precede the ‘odd/even numbers investigations’ to 20/ 100 - both of these resources are also available in my TES shop. Resource layout Page 1 has x7 step by step instructions and a visual example of how to use this resource for adults to reference to help learners get started. There are (colour coded) ‘sharing spots’ included for each number for learners to use to investigate whether each individual number in turn is odd or even from 1 to 10. Pages 2 to 6 Learners systematically work their way through the numbers (in order) from 1 to 10. For each number learners cut out and share out the correct number of ‘sharing spots’, alternating between placing (then sticking once happy) a dot on the left tall box then a dot on right tall box (repeated) until the correct total number of dots has been recorded. After doing this learners need to identify whether the amount of the dots on the left and right is ‘different’ or ‘the same’ and it is this which helps learners to identify whether each number is odd or even. There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of each sheet (on the left) and a space to write the number date at the top (right). Page 7 provides an opportunity for learners to consolidate their knowledge and record which numbers are ‘odd’ (in the red box on the left) and which numbers are even (in the green box on the right). Learners could complete page 7 on their own (from memory) or use their completed pages 2-6 as a reference to help with completing page 7 if needed. AlternativeSuggestion Coloured sticky dots could be used instead of the ‘sharing spots’ if you have these and if easier. Using ‘sticky dots’ instead would save learners needing to cut out and stick down the ‘sharing spots’ provided which may help make this activity simpler. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. Feedback would be wonderful! Thank you!
