I am always inviting parents to give maths a makeo

I am always inviting parents to give maths a makeover in their house. Do your best to always be positive about maths... as we are about to start another year of school it is an important time to remind everyone that your attitude to maths influences your child's attitude to maths... maths anxiety is contagious! So give maths a makeover and fake it until your make it!

This week’s Monday Maths Moment is a really simp

This week’s Monday Maths Moment is a really simple game we played this weekend.
It is “What’s the time Mr Wolf?”
I’m sure you know how it goes.
You have a wolf who faces away from the rest of the people playing.
The people playing call out “what’s the time Mr wolf?”
The wolf replies with a time... for example:

“4 o’clock” ⏰

The players then take 4 steps (counting aloud as they step✅✅)

This continues until the players are close to the wolf... and when the 🐺 chooses they say “Dinner time” and chases the players to try to catch them.

Where’s the maths?
✅time- we are talking about o’clock which is a great way to expose your youngsters to time ideas (for teachers: when I play with students in school I get the wolf to use a clock to show the time👍)
✅ counting- the players get to practice their counting sequence as they say “1,2,3,4) They also need to take 1 step for each number. This is a great to work on your little ones 1-1 correspondence.

Have you played “What’s the time Mr Wolf?” with your children? Why not give it a go this week.. you can play inside or outside and you don’t need any equipment 👌👌
