For Math this week, we are revisiting counting patterns and two digit numbers.
You might like to start the day, by counting using the number chart below.
Can you count by 5's, 10's, 2's? Do you notice a pattern?
ORIGO SLATE AT HOME LEARNING
ORIGO At Home, a space to provide guidance and instruction for continuing maths learning at home. In this space, you will find resources and activities to help provide engaging mathematical thinking and practice for your school age students. ORIGO’s team of educators has worked together to create daily maths activities focused around specific weekly topics. Each of the activities has full instructions along with a variety of linked digital resources, listed materials, and pages which can be downloaded and printed if you wish.

Materials - You will need a deck of cards with the picture cards removed. Ace may equal one or eleven.
Organisation - A game for two players.
Rules - (Play the traditional way first to get the hang of it and relook at the numbers to 10)
The game is played similar to ‘snap’.
One player deals all the cards face down to the players.
Each player turns over their top car. Instead of slapping (snapping) the pile of cards when the value on the two cards match, the pile of cards needs to be slapped when the values go up by one. For example if the 7 is placed on the pile and then an 8 is placed on top a player must ‘snap’ and then is able to pick up all the cards. If an 8 was on the pile and a 7 was put down, then the pile cannot be snapped. The value must go up by 1.
The winner is the player with the most cards after a set period of time or the player who ends up with all the cards.
