Activity
Choose one of the pictures to the right.
You will use it to tell an addition or subtraction story.
You will need a collection of about 20 small objects (buttons, lego bricks and pasta pieces work well). Imagine what your objects are going to be depending on the picture you choose.
Roll a dice and add that many objects to your picture card. For example, if you rolled a 6, put six buttons on one tree.
Roll again to add a different number to the second tree.
How many objects altogether? How did you add them together?
Tell a story about adding the numbers together.
Draw a picture to show what happened and record some numbers to match.
Questions to support my thinking
Activity too hard?
Use a smaller amount of objects/work with smaller numbers (less than 10).
Activity too easy?
Add three numbers/groups of objects
Roll the dice more than once to get a bigger number each time. Or double the number you roll.
Tell a subtraction story by taking some objects away.
For this story card, you are going to imagine birds, apples, possums or monkeys in the trees.
For this story card, you are going to imagine ants, snails, ladybirds or lizards in the grass, or any bug you choose!
