01 Number Concept Development (Natural Grade 1 environment & Animals) Grade 1: There are answers missing and spaces open! Join the mystery and solve it all! Remember what -- and + means. Example: 7+3=? (10) OR 5+?(4)=9 Now let's use some pictures and DRAW the correct amount where space is given. Example: DRAW THE AMOUNT OF FISH TO INDICATE THE ANSWER. ANSWER: DRAW 10 FISH 1. 2. 3. create.learn.play

02 Number Concept Development Grade 2&3 Grade 2: We have a special number of the day! Study the number below, read the questions carefully about the number and then answer them. Todays number=8 Write it_____________________ Draw it__________________ Add 6______________________ Subtract 3________________ Add 4______________________ Subtract 2________________ Next 5 numbers after Today's number__________________ Grade 3: Building numbers, WITH numbers! There are 5 numbers listed, the challenge is to build 3 more numbers from the number(s) already given, two or more numbers each. Example: a. 5463: 53 46 634 (three other numbers built from one number.) Now it's your turn!

03 Problem Solving Grade 1 (Animals+Seasons +Health) Grade 1: Let's solve the following problems. Put on those thinking caps! Read the following word problems and solve them, by writing or drawing the correct answer. 1.My friend, Penny has rabbits as pets. I only have one pet rabbit. Who has the most pet rabbits, me or Penny? _____________________ has the most pet __________________ . 2.I planted flowers with my grandmother, We need to plant 10 flowers all together. How many more flowers do we need to plant? (DRAW HOW MANY MORE NEED TO BE PLANTED) 3.We are going on vacation. It is very cold there. Please help me pack warm clothes for the cold winter weather. (DRAW 4 pieces OF CLOTHING FOR THE WINTER). 4.There are bottles of water in the fridge. We are 5 people who live in the house. How many bottles will be left if everyone gets one bottle? _________________________ of water will be left in the________________. create.learn.play

04 Problem Solving Grade 2 Grade 2: Read carefully through each problem and decide whether it is going to be ADDING or SUBTRACTING. Write down the correct answer and all the steps taken to solve it. Write neat and clear. Now let's start solving! 1.There are 16 cows grazing in the field outside our house. My father adds 14 more cows to the herd in the field. How many cows are there altogether grazing in the field now? 2. Anna picked 20 tomatoes from her vegetable garden on Tuesday morning. In the afternoon she picked some more tomatoes.

Thomas counts 17 Sparrows on a power line. 9 Sparrows fly away, how many are left on the power line? create.learn.play

05 Problem Solving Grade 3 Grade 3: This is Sammy. And Sammy has a shape challenge for you. The problem is that all these shapes don't have any colour! READ and follow the rules carefully. Let's see if you can solve Sammy's Shape Problem Challenge. You must color each shape either red, yellow or blue using the following rules. The RULES: 1) NO triangles are red. 2) One of the squares is blue. 3) Each pair of SIMILAR shapes must be shaded different colors, so you CANNOT have 2 yellow triangles or 2 blue squares. 4) There is one red shape in the MIDDLE column, and NO red shapes in the LEFT column. 5) There are no blue shapes next to each other. create.learn.play

06 Computation Grade 1 (Recycling) Grade 1: To recycle is very important, and just like recycling plastic, paper and boxes into bins, we can recycle numbers. By putting them in their correct recycling bins. 1.Read the numbers out loud in the different recycling bins below: a) 10 b) 20 c) 30 d) 5 e) 17 f) 22 2. Each number has their special reycling bin. Write each number from above in their correct recycling place value box: a) Th H T U b) Th H T U c) Th H T U d) Th H T U e) Th H T U f) Th H T U create.learn.play

07 Computation Grade 2 Grade 2: We are still recycling and numbers can also be recycled. By reusing them or changing them. By breaking down and building up numbers. Let me show you : When doing ADDITION , like 58+23, I can break up the numbers and seperate them, recycling them into GROUPS where they belong. Making each NUMBER either BIGGER or SMALLER. 58+23= (50+20)+(8+3)= 70+11=81 DO Break down the numbers for your answer and WRITE each ANSWER in their correct colour recycling bin: a) 56+21= b) 61+16= c) 44+23= d) 16+17= e) 72+11= f) 55+31= 20 to 40: 50 to 60: 69 up to 79: 80 to 100:

08 Computation Grade 3 Grade 3: Just like in the grade 1 and 2 activities, we are still recycling and keeping the Earth clean! Read through all the information provided. Complete the answers below and write neatly. Instructions: Every week people from the city of Windhoek collect trash for recycling.
