Maths Out Loud

Counting

Point to numbers on a 1-100 grid (see resources) as children pass a teddy around the circle while counting to 100. Whoever says a multiple of 10 holds the bear up in the air. Carry on round and round the circle to 100.

Number bonds

Roll a large 1 to 6 dice. Children show you on their fingers how many are needed to make 6. If you roll a 6, they just hold up a fist to show zero!

Chants/Rhymes/Songs

Use a counting to 100 song to get fit! E.g. Let's Get Fit - Count to 100
