This is an absolute winner!
I have used this activity in both secondary schools and FE colleges, and is suitable for primary learning. It really works in engaging students of all abilities and ages. This can be used as stand alone fun activity, or as a starter for a lesson on place value.
It also provides opportunity for 2 digit addition (calculator/non-calculator).
Full instructions and suggestions included.
A starter activity designed to introduce younger students to the five senses. An Interactive resource with sound.
An engaging and interactive activity to develop students knowledge and understanding. Have fun whilst learning!
