Place Value and Receipts

As it's the Half Term break, my family and I took in a spot of lunch out earlier today. We were in a well known pub chain that have an app that allows orders to be made from the table...

 

A receipt we received, contained various numbers. All the numbers need to be read in Key Stage Two. Grab a load of receipts. Can the children in Year Four/Five read all the numbers on them?

We've started a collection here.

Count von Count Place Value

Yesterday, I found a new Twitter account that could be useful in maths lessons...

One thousand three hundred thirteen!

Each day, or a couple of times a day, the count Tweets a number. Stick it on your board in your classroom:

 - can the children write it in numbers;

- what are its factors? Is it prime?;

- what's half of it? Double it;

- and so on...

One thousand two hundred fifty eight!
