Primary maths. Calculation

Description

At Eleanor Palmer School in north London, headteacher Kate Frood and her enthusiastic staff use maths games to engage and invigorate their primary pupils, and share three of their best ideas - good solid maths learning cleverly interwoven with some traditional fun and games.A Year 3 class plays Four Rolls to a Hundred where in two teams they have to roll a die, then choose whether or not to multiply the roll by ten to get them as close to 100 as they can. Code Breaking challenges Year 6 to try to establish the value of the word TABLE having been given the numeric value of just some of the letters. Can they do it? Year 1 practise their counting on skills in a simple but fun dice game they call Bird Race . Each roll moves them up the board towards the finish.
