Good morning Y5 and Y6. I hope you all had a good weekend.  First of all, use your digit cards, playing cards or number generator (set to either 13-49 for a half challenge or 13-99 for a full challenge) to complete two different coin cards.  Below are the two videos from last week: one on how to make your own digit cards and the other with some modelled examples of completing different levels of coin cards.

Challenges 

After completing the coin cards, click on the link below to have a go at solving some maths problems.  Each one gets a little more challenging so choose the ones that are right for you.

Level 1 - complete challenge 1 and 2

Level 2 - complete challenges 3 and 4

Level 3 - complete challenge 5 and 6

Or you could have a go at them all and see how you get on! You could also have a go at solving them together with a member of your household.
