10 things to do with …..

My latest resources are the first in a series of activity booklets: ’10 things to do with Numicon’ and ’10 things to do with Times Tables’.

10 things to do with Numicon – Based on a concrete-pictorial-abstract approach, Numicon encourages children to explore mathematics using structured imagery and apparatus in order to understand and explain mathematical concepts. Numicon is a flexible tool which can be used in different ways as you progress from year 1 to year 6. In KS1 it is often used as a calculating tool but can be used to develop problem solving as you progress into KS2. These 10 Numicon activities can be used with children in KS1 and 2. Many of activities for two or more children and encourage children to problem solve and generalise.

10 things to do with Times Tables – Times tables recall is a real focus in primary schools with the introduction of the Multiplication Times Tables Check (MTC). Recall is important but the teaching of times tables is also important. These 10 activities give opportunities for children to develop their recall as well as exploring links between representations and looking for patterns in the tables. Although resources such as playing cards are suggested, alternatives have also been given as well as extensions. These activities are aimed at KS2 children.
