Learning Intention: We are learning to understand how to add groups together to find the total

Success Criteria: I can use my understanding of addition to add groups together

You will need: 

Paper (cut into strips)

Glue OR Sticky Tape OR Stapler

Coloured pencils and textas

Writing pencil

Activity Steps:

1. Roll a dice three times OR select 3 playing cards to get three numbers to add together

2. Cut coloured strips of paper to match the numbers you have in each group (for example 4 pink, 5 blue and 2 orange)

3. Put some glue on the edge of your first piece of paper and fold it into a circle

4. Loop the next piece of paper through your first circle (make sure it’s the same colour) and glue it into a circle

5. Continue doing this with all of your first colour, then your second colour, and finally your third colour

6. Write your number sentence on a blank piece of paper and then count the total amount of loops in your chain to solve to number sentence (for example 4 and 5 and 2 is 9)

Learning Intention: We are learning to count on in Maths to help us with our addition.

Success Criteria: I can 'count on' to add numbers together.

You will need dice for this activity.

1. Can you count how many blue stars can you see? This is your starting number.  Now, write it down.

2. Roll a dice.  Add the number on your dice to your first number (the number of blue stars), by counting on - taking your first number and adding the number on your dice. 

3. Roll your dice a second time, using this number count on from the number above.

4. Continue to roll your dice, using counting on to continue to add your numbers together. Can you roll the dice ten times? What is your final number?

Learning Intention:  We are learning to build numbers using tens and ones. Success Criteria: I can work out how many tens and ones make up my whole number.

Instructions:

1.  Trace over the number on the sheet.

2. Using the tens frames, put in a dot to represent every one in your number 

3. Looking at your completed tens frame, how many tens do you have? How many ones do you have?

Learning Intention: We are learning to solve mathematical problems by drawing pictures.

Success Criteria: I can use the strategy of drawing pictures to help me solve a mathematical problem.

The problem:

First problem:

There are 12 animals on a farm.  Some are cows and some are chickens.  There are 28 legs in total.  How many cows are on your farm? How many chickens are on your farm?

Use drawing a picture to help you solve the problem.

Second problem:

There are 20 animals on your farm.  Some are cows and some are chickens.  There are 68 legs in total.  How many cows are on your farm? How many chickens are on your farm?

Use drawing a picture to help you solve the problem.

Third problem:

There are 30 animals on a farm.  Some are cows and some are chickens.  There are 94 legs in total.  How many cows are on your farm? How many chickens are on your farm?

Use drawing a picture to help you solve the problem

Learning Intention: We are learning to share in equal groups

Success Criteria: I can share equally between groups

The problem:

You have 12 pencils.  How many different ways can you share these evenly? If you have 12 pencils or textas at home, actually use them to help you work out how many different ways you can share evenly.  Draw a picture or use tally marks to show how many different ways you come up with. 

Complete the number sentences in your workbook. 

Is there more than one way you can solve them?
