Which phoneme frame?

I intend to use this with my phase 5/6 group. I give a word and they decide which phoneme frame to use. This should give them lots of practise with segmenting.

Laminate and children could use a dry wipe pen

Numeracy adding 3 numbers


Just made this little game for my little group.

Objective is to add 3 numbers together.

Children work in pairs with a white board pen each (diff colours) or could use counters in different colours. Child throws 3 dice and adds up the score. If they have that number then they can cross off the cupcake. When all the cupcakes are crossed off the person who has crossed off the most is the winner. I have made 2 sets as I have 4 in my group. Have made a blank one which could be laminated and you could write your own numbers on.
