Topic Maths Aims A variety of maths based exercises to be used as a warm up and ‘energiser’ at the beginning of a math lesson Team work and group discussion is also encouraged Worksheets can be collected at the end of the exercise to see who the winner is Level Level 2 Method Paper/Electronic Slides can be printed out to use as work sheets Equipment PC/Laptop Paper/Worksheets Duration 30 Minutes +
3
Place the numbers 1 to 9 (only once) in the boxes so each of the four lines of three boxes add up to 13 Discuss with each other a strategy to solve it
4
Discuss the statement by a Landlady to her tenant: “I don’t mind if you pay £50.00 a week or £200.00 per month just as long as I get it” Is there a difference? Can you show that there is a difference? Check with another Student £££££
5
Put in some missing operator signs (+,- to make the following sum work) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 = 100 You can combine numbers in order e.g. the 3 and 4 can be 34, but you can not change the order
6
How many connections can you find between two or more of these numbers?
7
A) 58 B) 56 C) 746 These are the answers to three questions that only use the numbers 5, 6, 10, 25 and 73 once What could be the question
8
Identify as fast as possible, how many pairs of numbers have a difference of A) 10 B) 100 C) 1000
9
Draw and fill in a 4x4 grid with relevant number in each square ; for example you could put 9 in the first square Square Number Prime NumberMultiple of 5Even Number Multiple of 10Multiple of 3Ends in 1Triangular Number Greater than 120 3-digit NumberOdd NumberFactor of 30 Between 60 and 70 Cube NumberLess than 5First Digit is 2
10
Draw and fill in a 4x4 grid with relevant number in each square ; for example you could put 9 in the first square Square NumberPrime NumberMultiple of 5Even Number Multiple of 10Multiple of 3Ends in 1Has a 3 in it Greater than 120 3-digit NumberOdd NumberFactor of 30 Between 60 and 70 Middle digit is 9Less than 15First Digit is 2
11
Draw and fill in a 4x4 grid with relevant number in each square ; for example you could put 738 in the first square Prime Number greater than 50 Square Number greater than 144 Multiple of 7Divisible by 7, 11 and 13 A decimal number Factor of 75A Percentage greater than 30% Triangular number greater than 10 Less than minus 5 4-digit NumberOdd Number greater than 1000 Factor of 45 Between 80 and 120 A mixed number Bigger than one million First Digit is 7
12
Draw and fill in a 4x4 grid with relevant number in each square ; for example you could put 93871 in the first square Prime Number greater than 100 Square Number greater than 50 Multiple of 9Divisible by 7, 11 and 13 A decimal number to 5 decimal places Factor of 40A Percentage greater than 70% Triangular number greater than 10 Less than minus 25 5-digit NumberOdd Number greater than 1000 Factor of 88 Between 80 and 120 A very small number Less than one million First Digit is 9
13
Draw and fill in a 4x4 grid with relevant number in each square ; for example you could put 871 in the first square Proper FractionMixed NumberMultiple of 9Lowest common denominator of 3 and 7 A money amount over £10 Factor of 60A Percentage less than 70% Square number A negative number Top heavy fraction Odd Number greater than 1001 Factors of 17 A prime number3 digit numberOver one millionFirst Digit is 8
14
Using a 3x3 grid and the numbers 1 to 9 fill it in so the rows, columns, and diagonals, all add up to the same number What about a 5x5 grid using the numbers 1 to 25?
