Learning Intention For Today:
To know that numbers are made up of smaller numbers
For this activity you will need:
Your challenge is to see how many different ways you can find to make 4, using the coloured objects.
Place them on the top line of your frame to help you see the patterns.
Alternatively you may prefer to use the interactive version of this game (link below)
Here are some examples
Write down all the different combinations of colours you could find to make 4. Then repeat with 5 and then 6.
What do you notice about the number of different ways you can find as the numbers get bigger?
EXTENSION
If your child finds this easy, try using a bigger number (up to 10) or using 3 different colour combinations!
