Find Subtraction Sums

Learners use the grid to locate subtraction sums.

Venn diagram

Learners practice sorting and clarifying using Venn diagram

Addition puzzle boxes

Learners use the above puzzles board to practice addition and skills by finding the missing numbers that make the numbers outside boxes.

Juniper green

Players work together to improve multiplication and division.

Two clips – multiplication

Players improve their multiplication skills.

Two clips – addition

Players team up to improve their addition skills.

Fraction pictionary

Players use playing cards to practice fractions and division skills

Array hooray!

Learners match multiplication fact to an array.

Build arrays

Players use counters to build arrays when they roll a dice.

Muffins and pies

Introducing multiplication with a context that lends itself to arrays

Puzzle

Learners identify skip counting patterns.

Number pattern investigation

Learners skip count while colouring three 100 grids. They then compare the grids.

The goal is to fill up the grid to get it as full as possible while using the space as efficiently as possible. Draw arrays on the grid to see how close you can get to 100. How many squares do you have empty?

12 or 24

Learners formulate addition, subtraction, division and multiplication sums from 12 and 24.

Total three

Players take turns to roll the two dice. Do calculations in addition, subtraction and multiplication each time they roll.

Nice or nasty
