Transcript maths and language games

Maths games for languages
• The following slides are designed to practice
numbers in French (though you could easily
adapt them to Spanish or German)
• They are also designed to reinforce the concept
of number and be slightly more cognitively
demanding in a mathematical manner while
using the minimum language.
• The first games need only the numbers 0-10 in
French (or Spanish or German)
Maths Karaté
Keep a very straight face and teach the following
by making signs with your arms:
+
plus
-
moins
=
égale
X
fois

divisé par
Maths Karaté
Now as a class try doing some karaté
training by acting out some sums;
• Say aloud ‘deux’ (all hold up 2 fingers)
• + (all leap into position and call out ‘plus’)
• ‘trois’ (all hold up 3 fingers)
• = (class leap into position saying égale)
• then look to the class to provide the
answer (which they must do by holding
up 5 fingers and saying ‘cinq’)
Knowledge about number
The following slides are still based on the numbers 0 – 9 and the
operations + -  X and =
Children must guess what number/sign is behind each column,
you then click on it to reveal if they guessed right or wrong.
Encourage them to think carefully by not clicking on the columns
in order & eliciting what they can deduce. For example in the
next slide they should be able to deduce that the second
column MUST be + -  X or =
The answer only has one column, therefore only one digital place,
so can the class narrow down the possibilities with each column
you reveal? (If there are 2 columns after the = then it is a 2 digit
answer and so on.)
If the operation revealed is X then reveal the final column next to
give the children a clue which number must be involved in the
multiplication and so on...
9 – 7 = 2
8 + 1 = 9
3 + 4 = 7
1 x 6 = 6
3 x 3 = 9
8 - 5 = 3
4  2 =2
7 - 7 = 0
2 x 4 = 8
9  3 = 3
4 x 7 = 28
6 x 3 = 18
9 + 6 = 15
9 x 5 = 45
3 x 4 = 12
7 + 7 = 14
2 + 9 = 11
7 x 7 = 49
363=12
82-9=73
524=13
52-9=43
5x10=50
2x14=28
444=11
6012=5
64+8=72
94-7=87
