Difference Bingo

This is a fun way to develop skills in subtracting numbers.

Turn cards over and work out the difference, then cross out these numbers on your chart.
Great for all ages, and lots of family fun!

Who Am I ?

 We have all played the old favourite game of "Who Am I?", where you have a tray of faces and you have to try and identify one that your opponent has selected, and vice versa.

One needs to be very precise in the way that you ask your questions to be successful in this game.

This game I have put together is pretty much the same. Instead of identifying characters, you have to identify numbers!!

Just be prepared to ask detailed questions about the numbers, rather than just trying to guess.

This is a game that could be a lot of fun for the family, while at the same time helping you to learn.

AFL Finals 2021

 

It's Footy finals time in Australia!!

For those overseas readers, I'm talking about Australian Rules Football, not the football you play that we call Soccer!!

We can be very competitive and passionate about the teams that we follow, and this post explains how our Finals system works.

It is a great activity that I've done with kids of all ages, and they love to see how their team goes (if they are lucky enough to be playing!)

This can be done over and over again to see if the same team wins, or whether there are some wins by lesser placed teams.

So, have a look, and good luck!!

Maths For Home Learning

 Hi Readers,

It has been so hard lately to maintain this Blog while at the same time adding to my YouTube Channel 

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEdzfVvM9bIX2sWmWxwBDLQ/videos

and also my website

https://www.mathsconnection.com.au/

So, here is what I have been doing.

As the schools in our part of Australia go into lockdown for the 6th time (or is it the 7th?) I have been creating short maths clips that teach the necessary skills that children need for basic mental computation.

You could even try the QR code that is much quicker.

The kids in my class contribute ideas and help to make the clips, and really understand the need to think of ways to modify them to suit all ages and abilities.

Feel free to jump in and have a look, and feel free to share them as much as you like.

Cheers

Bernard
