Work through the PowerPoint added as a 2Do on Purple Mash. Afterwards, ask a grown up to put you some objects in a jar/clear bottle and practise estimating how many you think there are. This is hard for young children to do at first as they naturally want to count them first so it will take some practise.

Make your own Chinese Money Wallet, using the template uploaded onto Purple Mash or you can create your own. Afterwards, practise counting different amounts of pennies in it. Remember, when we count pennies we always add the 'p' for pence. Can you count 7p, 9p, 12p, 14p? What about 6p + 4p= etc. There is also a sheet for you to try after, alternatively you can count your pennies and practise writing the different amounts. Remember, when writing your amounts, its not just 5 its 5p.

Maths 4.2.21

Practise finding your number bonds to 10. Draw a part-whole model like the one above and write 10 in the top circle (make it fill a whole page). Use concrete objects (whatever you have 10 of) and practise finding different ways of making 10. Do this practically (you don't need to write it down) and explore different ways of making 10. How many different ways can you find? E.g. 5 + 5, what other ways can you find?
