Good Morning, Nursery.

I hope that you enjoyed playing board games yesterday.

Today , we are going to practice the numbers to 10 again.

You will need your number cards from 0-10.

Lay out your number cards in a line from 0 to 10.

Turn around so that you can’t see them.

Ask your grown up to ‘steal’ one number but rearrange the rest of the cards so that you can’t see the gap.

Turn around and count along the line to see if you can say the number which  is missing. You could also try to write the number that you think is missing.

Put your  finger between the two numbers where you think the missing number belongs.

Ask your grown up to show the number they stole! Were you correct?

Take turns with your grown up to play the game.

If you are finding this very tricky, try using the numbers o-6 at first.  If you are finding this very easy, try laying the cards so the line counts backwards from 10 to o.

Have fun. I am looking forward to hearing all about it.

Love from Miss Siswick. (I will be at school so I will not be able to respond until  later today.)

PRINTABLE VERSION:N Maths Tuesday

It would really help me if you could upload photos  straight to the media file (instructions are here: sharing photos and files) as they get to me more quickly and easily as they don’t have to go via the office and my e-mail. Please can either your child’s name or face (but not both) be visible on any photos. Many thanks.

  1. We played the game with Hermine a few times and she got it right. She found it very entertaining and likes playing with numbers.

    Good Morning Miss Siswick,

    Adelaide did the game and she recognised all the missing numbers that were taken, but she said it was tricky because 6 and 9 were almost the same but it was really easy for her with the rest of the numbers.

    Also she says her favourite number was ten and she cannot wait until she’s ten to discover more things!

  3. Hello Miss Siswick,

    Caspian practiced his tricks several times , we started with 1 card then 2 cards then 3 cards all the way to 5 .

  4. Dear Miss Siswick,

    Nicolas loved this game. He is still playing with his sister.

    Greetings from us ?

    Philip played with his sister so we went up to 20 and he was able to keep up. It helped him to touch each number card when counting along, really focusing on the digits.

    Hello Miss Siswick,

    Alexander was able to correctly identify the missing number cards by counting towards where the gap was and saying the missing number. We had a few turns and he had fun with the exercise.

  7. Hello Nursery.
    Ania really enjoys this game. We started from 0-6 Ania found the missing number without a problem. We added more numbers and Ania didn’t have a problem with that either.She was very happy when she done corretly.

  9. Hello Miss Siswick,

    I had lots of fun playing this game with Saoirse and I guessed correctly which number was missing. I didn’t want to write the numbers though.

  10. Sam identified the missing numbers, although sometimes he counted as if the number was still there. Maggie made it harder for him stealing extra numbers!

  11. This is fun! We have been playing this afternoon :))

  12. Dear Miss Siswick,

    Anna enjoyed the game. Thank you.

  13. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done, all of you. I am glad that you enjoyed today’s Maths game. I thought it would be tricky but it sounds as if you are all getting so confident with the numbers. Great work, Nursery.
