Saturday: Number Hunt

Rosie bounces by with a big smile.

"Let us hunt for three groups at home!" she says.

"Add them up any way you like."

Hunt for three groups

Find three small groups of things.

Count each group.

Add two groups, then the third.

Try a new order. Is the total the same?

A ten-frame with four red counters and six gold counters

4 and 6 make 10. Look for a ten!

Try it: Number Hunt
Count forks, spoons and cups. How many in all?
Count shoes by the door in three piles.
Find 2 pillows, 3 books and 5 toys. Add them.
Swap the order. Did the total change?

◇ THREE-GROUP GAME WITH A GROWN-UP
Your grown-up makes three small piles of blocks.
You add them up and say the total.
Then add them in a new order.
Then you make three piles for them!
Take turns four times.
Draw three baskets with apples. Add them.
For a grown-up
This week your child learned turn-around facts.
They also added three numbers.
Ask, "Can you find two that make 10?"
Any order is fine. Praise their thinking.

Great hunting! Next week Bennie shows how to make a ten.
