These two group activities use mathematical reasoning - one is
numerical, one geometric.
An investigation involving adding and subtracting sets of consecutive numbers. Lots to find out, lots to explore.
EWWNP means Exploring Wild and Wonderful Number Patterns Created by Yourself! Investigate what happens if we create number patterns using some simple rules.
A game for two players. Practices subtraction or other maths operations knowledge. Uses coordinate geometry to locate the numbers used.
Using all of the numbers from 6 to 30, write a different number on one of the circles on the game board.
Don't write the numbers in counting order, write them randomly in the circles.
To help keep track, as you use a number, cross it out from the bottom circles.
You may not use the same number twice.
Make sure your opponent can't see your game board.
Decide who will go first and who will be second.
To gain as many points as possible by answering maths facts problems.
Keeping the board and numbers the same, addition can be the operation practiced. If practice is needed in multiplication, the given numbers can be altered according to the facts that need to be worked on.
Increasing the value of the chosen numbers or choosing a smaller set of lower numbers and repeating them will allow the level of difficulty to be matched to the skill level of the players.
