Maths Out Loud

Counting

Together, chant the numbers to 100, using both hands to mark the 10s: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10! 11, 12 etc.

Number bonds

Put children in pairs: one child is a lion, the other a tiger! Tigers, show me 4 fingers. They calculate how many fingers their partner (the lion) must hold up to show 6 altogether. Repeat, asking tigers to show 0 to 6 fingers. Lions show the complement to 6. Try to build up the pace!
Tigers and lions swap roles. (Use for any pair you want to practise from 5 to 10.)
