Week 10

Extra Maths During Lockdown

Some parents have been asking for more work for their child/ren. White Rose Maths is a scheme that some of our year groups already follow and they are providing daily maths work for children from Early Years - Year 8. Please follow the link below and click on the year group of your choice - you will then need to follow the instructions on that screen. Please be patient as this website does sometimes crash when there are too many people across the country trying to access it as it is such a great resource. Please note that there are no extra sheets available but during the video, there are chances for the child to practise what is being taught and then the teacher will go over through it.

Pitching Pennies

You will need:

  • Pennies or other small currency coins
  • Plastic or paper drinking cups (large size)

How to:

  1. Each child gets five coins. A cup is placed on a table or a chair in front of them.
  2. Ask the child to take ‘x’ steps away from the cup, where ‘x’ is his or her age. Adults can move five steps farther than the children to throw the pennies.
  3. The child has to toss the coins, one at a time, into the cup.
  4. The child who puts in most coins in five chances wins.

Quick Tip:

You can replace coins with marbles or even ping pong balls.
