Isaac, Uzziel, Aleah, Honour and Hugo have been having lots of fun using dominoes for maths. We have discovered lots of mathematical thinking just by playing dominoes or using them in different ways. We learnt how to play the traditional game of dominoes where you have to match the dot patterns at the ends. We also found lots of dominoes that had doubles like 3+3=6 or 6+6=12. We have also been using these for practising our basic facts by adding the different end numbers together.
You might like to have a go at this game at home - you could make your own set of dominoes like Ben is doing for his project in Kohara, print off some of the internet or use the ones that many children were collecting from Countdown!
