Go and collect 10 things from around your house. Place them in order from longest to shortest. In your book: Heading: Length Draw the objects in your maths book and label each item.

Length Who has the biggest head? Find a strip of paper. Use it to measure around your head. Use a pencil to mark how big your head is on the strip of paper.

Measure the head of each person who is in your house. What could you use to measure each person’s head? Put your strip of paper on a table. Use lego blocks, pegs, or pencils. How many of these items did you need? For example, Mum’s head measurement is 7 pegs. My head measurement is 5 pegs. Who has the biggest head?

Write the number at the top of your page. This is the answer to some number sentences and word problems that use addition and subtraction (+ and -). Write down as many number sentences or word problems where the answer is your chosen number. Use the empty number lines, hundreds chart or square counters to help you if needed. For example: Number sentence 2 + 4 + 13 = 19 Word problem There were 25 kangaroos in a field. 6 jumped away. How many are left? Choose one of the other numbers and repeat on the next page. .

Find the Shopping Catalogue that has been attached to the framework. You have $100 to spend, you can spend less but not more - get as close to $100 as you can. Work out what you want to buy and record it in your maths book using addition or subtraction number sentences. If you use your hundreds chart to help, please include a photo of this so we can see your working out. If you have a printer, you can cut out the pictures. If you don’t, you can write the items down. Example: LEGO: $100 - $19 = $81 UNO: $81 - $7 = $74 Take a photo of your work and upload it to Seesaw.
