P1P Big Maths Beat That

For the past few weeks, on a Friday morning, P1P have been doing their ‘Big Maths Beat That’ challenge. This is a timed mental maths activity where they attempt to beat their own score from the previous week. Most of the children have been trying to get speedier at their addition doubles while some have been managing more challenging addition sums.

Here are the addition sums we have been practising everyday:

1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 2 = 4, 3 + 3 = 6, 4 + 4 = 8, 5 + 5 = 10, 2 + 1 = 3, 2 + 3 = 5

The more challenging sums are the ways to make 10 i.e. 9 + 1, 8 + 2, 7 + 3, 6 + 4 etc.

Look at us using our brainboxes to concentrate so well!
