The 'Skip Counting Pizza Puzzles' allow students to practise skip counting by 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 from 0, by sorting pizza slices to create a complete pizza.
This activity is perfect for maths rotations.
Recognise, continue and create pattern sequences, with numbers, symbols, shapes and objects, formed by skip counting, initially by twos, fives and tens
Recall and demonstrate proficiency with addition facts to 20; extend and apply facts to develop related subtraction facts
Recall and demonstrate proficiency with multiplication facts for twos; extend and apply facts to develop the related division facts using doubling and halving
Quantify sets of objects, to at least 120, by partitioning collections into equal groups using number knowledge and skip counting
Investigate and describe number patterns formed by skip-counting and patterns with objects
Investigate number sequences, initially those increasing and decreasing by twos, threes, fives and tens from any starting point, then moving to other sequences
Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols
Uses objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems
Creates, represents and continues a variety of patterns with numbers and objects
Supports conclusions by explaining or demonstrating how answers were obtained
Applies place value, informally, to count, order, read and represent two- and three-digit numbers
Uses a range of mental strategies and concrete materials for multiplication and division
Applies an understanding of place value and the role of zero to read, write and order two- and three-digit numbers
Uses the structure of equal groups to solve multiplication problems, and shares or groups to solve division problems
Uses number bonds and the relationship between addition and subtraction to solve problems involving partitioning
Investigate and describe number patterns formed by skip counting and patterns with objects
Solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a range of efficient mental and written strategies
Investigate number sequences, initially those increasing and decreasing by twos, threes, fives and ten from any starting point, then moving to other sequences
Recognise and represent multiplication as repeated addition, groups and arrays
Apply repetition in arithmetic operations, including multiplication as repeated addition and division as repeated subtraction
Recognise and represent division as grouping into equal sets and solve simple problems using these representations
To complete as a class activity, each student may be provided with a puzzle to cut, sort and paste in the correct order in their book.
