Double’s Addition Memory Game.

Choose 6 different matching pairs of playing cards (for example, two cards that both have 2s on them, two cards that both have 4s on them etc…) Mix the 12 cards up. Then arrange them into two rows of 6. Your child must then try and find the matching pairs by turning two cards over at a time. If the two cards turned over are matching they must say what that double number calculation is equal to and they then get to keep the two cards. Then their partner can go or if they are playing by themselves they can go again and try to find the next pair.

Marvellous Measure

Here are some mini-measuring challenges to do….

1) When out for a walk can you find lots of different twigs. Gather them up as you go and then find a spot in which you can put them into order starting with the shortest.

2.) With chalk or objects mark out different lines on the ground or on the floor if inside. Have a starting mark to jump from and mark where you land. Measure how far you have travelled by counting how many steps it is away from the starting point or have a go using a tape measure if you have one! Can you do it again and go further? Challenge your siblings or grown-up to have a go, can you measure how far they have travelled?

3.) Push a car or anything with wheels from a start point and measure how far it travels. (Using a tape measure or counting by steps.) Set the car up to go again and this time create a ramp for the car to start from. (You could make this by putting a book against a table, a bit of wood propped up against something - be creative!) Measure how far it travels. Does the car/wheeled object travel further when it starts from flat on the ground or from the top of the ramp. Why do you think that is?
