Measurement terms around the house
Cut out the cards. Put some Blu Tack on the back of them, then go on a measurement trail around your house. What items could be described by the words? Stick your cards on them!
Using non-standard measures: length
Let's get measuring. Look at your hand. Stretch it out as big as it can go. The distance from your thumb to your little finger is called your hand span. Go around your house finding things that are smaller and things that are larger than your hand span. Write them in these circles.
Number bonds to 20 snap
This is a great way to practise number bonds at speed. One player turns over a card and places it on the table, face up. The next player puts down a card next to it. Players take turns putting cards on the second pile (face up). When two cards put down together make 20, it’s snap! The person who says “snap” first keeps all the cards. Play again. The winner is the player who has all the cards at the end of the game.
Number bonds to 10 and 20 practice
Mia has finished her number bonds homework. How did she get on? Put a tick next to calculations she got right and a cross next to the ones that are incorrect. How many incorrect number bonds did you spot? Can you write the right answers next to them?

Do you know your hexagons from your heptagons, your pentagonal pyramids from your octagonal prisms? From 2D shapes to angles and symmetry our seventy-page Primary Geometry: shape and space learning pack covers all aspects of the national curriculum (Shape and Space) and will ensure your child can use a protractor, translate a shape and look for a mirror line. Challenge them to a game of 3D shape dominoes, make a right-angle measurer and get started!
Doubles and near doubles bingo
This game will help your child use what they know (doubles, like 10 + 10 = 20) to help them to work out what they don’t know (near doubles, like 10 + 9 = 19). Two players and a caller are needed.
