Introduction

Maths Zone

The Maths Zone series was designed to encompass a broad area of the mathematics curriculum for students in the middle primary years. The series is divided into three books which cover several sections: Number; Measurement, Space and Data; Mathematical Reasoning Each of the above curriculum areas is further subdivided into the core discipline requirements of mathematics. The worksheets are a mix of traditional algorithms and puzzle sheets. Some of them will be familiar to the teacher and students, while others are original in composition and offer the challenge and novelty of a new approach. Where necessary, the work has been graded to increase in complexity so that students can be guided along the stages of development needed to fully assimilate concepts.

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Book 3 contains an Activities section, which includes mathematically-based activities for the whole class and small groups. These activities are fun, as well as interesting and challenging, requiring the logical discipline of mathematics in order to accomplish them.

Whether you are a classroom teacher or a relief teacher, the Maths Zone Series can be used at any time during the year. The series provides worksheets relevant to all mathematical concepts. Blank templates of some of the activities have been included in this book to allow teachers the opportunity to compose followup worksheets as the need arises.

There has also been considerable effort made to incorporate a language experience within the Maths Zone series. In activities involving problem solving, Venn diagrams and data sections, much care has been taken with the language to make it, not only accurate and amusing, but also an integral part of mathematic concepts. All activities are outcome based and link to the following curriculum areas:

2. Harpo had a jar with fifty marbles in it. Twenty of the marbles were all green, fifteen of the marbles were green and yellow. How many marbles were just yellow?

Draw the Venn diagram of Groucho’s extra special marble jar that had a total twenty-two marbles in it, of which sixteen were all or part silver and eighteen were all or part gold. How many were actually both colours?

Draw the Venn diagram of Harpo’s super special marble jar that had a total of thirty marbles in it, of which seventeen had scarlet and twenty-one had lilac in them. How many were definitely a combination of both those colours?

2. Leo was bragging that he had jogged twenty-five kilometres in total. Some of the ground he had jogged over was smooth, some was rough and some was a mixture of rough and smooth. He jogged six kilometres over ground that was a mix and one more kilometre over ground that was smooth than over ground that was rough. Draw this as a Venn diagram.

7. Tarzan had given Simba twelve liquorice sticks and the same number to Leo as he didn’t want either of them to get jealous. But four of those liquorice sticks he had given to both of them to share. Represent this as a Venn diagram that shows how many liquorice sticks in total Tarzan had actually given to the lions.

1. A lion named Leo ate ten gazelles, some of which he ate by himself and some of which he shared with Simba. Simba ate twelve gazelles, some of which he shared with Leo and some of which he ate all by himself. In total, these two lions had shared four of the gazelles. So altogether how many gazelles were eaten by the two lions?

6. Altogether the two lions had seen Tarzan forty-one times in the jungle. While alone, Simba had seen him twelve times and Leo had seen him fifteen times. Draw the Venn diagram of this to show the number of times they had seen Tarzan when they were together.

8. Lucy lion smiled a total of thirty smiles at the two lions. She had smiled eight times at them both together. But she had smiled two more smiles at Simba than at Leo, because she liked him a little more. Draw this as a Venn diagram to show how many smiles each lion had from Lucy.

3. Draw a Venn diagram showing that Leo had roared forty times on his own and fifteen times with Simba, while between them they had roared a total of a hundred times. (Note: a roar by two lions is still just one roar, just twice as loud.)

9. Leo and Simba’s favourite movie was The Lion King, of course. They saw the film together three times but Simba saw it another five times without Leo and Leo saw it a total of sixteen times. Represent this situation in Venn diagram form.

4. Lucy lion received eight Valentine presents from Leo but twice as many from Simba and half as many from both of them together. Represent this as a Venn diagram. 5. Several cubs from the pride called Leo and Simba “uncle”. Seven called Leo uncle while six called Simba uncle, however four of these cubs were in fact calling them both uncle. Represent this as a Venn diagram to show how many cubs there were.

10. While watching The Lion King for the first time, Leo threw eleven jaffas at the screen trying to hit the villainous lion, Scar. He also threw six other jaffas together with Simba. Of course, Simba threw several jaffas on his own. In total they threw twenty-six jaffas at the screen. Represent this as a Venn diagram that clearly shows how many jaffas were thrown and by which lion. (It’s not easy being a jaffa when The Lion King is being shown in the jungle.)

Place these simple statements in a Venn diagram and solve them. Be sure to give an appropriate title to the diagram and to label each ring.

Then the team conducted the above survey with a class of thirty-five children.

1. The first survey found nineteen students of the class liked basketball while twenty-two of them liked cricket. How could this be if there were only thirty children in the class? 2. The second survey showed that fifteen of the children liked both rugby and soccer, whereas only six of them just liked rugby. How many of the children just liked soccer?

6. For the first test fourteen children liked cricket while twenty-five of them liked basketball. Use the Venn diagram method to explain this test result.

7. In the survey comparing rugby and soccer, the result displayed that an equal number of children liked only rugby as those who liked only soccer and fifteen students liked them both. 8. The survey questions concerning volleyball and netball revealed that none of the students liked both of those sports and three more liked volleyball than netball. (All of the students like one or the other of them.)

4. The fourth survey indicated the startling facts that only three of the students liked science and only two others liked both science and maths. The rest didn’t like any of these subjects. How many of the students did not like maths?

5. The fifth survey was along the same lines as the fourth. The surveyors asked the students who liked art and who liked sport. Of course, some of them picked both. As a result twenty selected art and twenty-three chose sport. Show this startling data in a Venn diagram.

10. The final survey indicated that none of the students thought their teacher was clever and none of them thought that she was smart. They merely all thought that she was both of these things, believe it or not!

If everyone worked out equations by calculating the various parts in whichever order they wanted, they would all be right or all be wrong, unless they made a mistake in the calculations then they would be wrong regardless of the order they calculated the parts ... However, this would cause a bit of confusion, so a particular order or priority has been assigned to the various mathematical operations involved in equations. One such order is called BODMAS ODMAS, which stands for: Brackets are done first, then Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition and finally any Subtraction. Notice how important the brackets are. Any operation enclosed in them should always be done first.

Clowning With Problems

CALCULATORS WILL BE USEFUL!

1. Pippie the clown was pleased that he could juggle four balls but this was only a third of the number of balls that Pippetto could keep bouncing at the one time which was a half of the number that Pippellina could balance on her outstretched arms. How many balls could Pippellina balance?

2. If Pippetto had seven cream pies tossed at his face every show and each pie cost $2.75 and there were two shows each weekday and three shows each day of the weekend, how much had been spent on pies after four weeks?

4. Two shows a day were held over five days. The audience attendance was:

Day 1 = 350 (first show) and 420 (second show). Day 2 = (half the total for day 1) and 455. Day 3 = 290 and 345. Day 4 = (the difference between first show of day 1 and second show of day 2, doubled) and 375. Day 5 = (the same as the smallest audience so far) and 360. How many people in total attended these shows?

5. What was the average attendance for each day over these five days?

6. What was the average attendance per show?

7. If adults paid $7.50 to see the show and children paid half price, and half of the audience for Day 2 were children, how much entrance money was paid that day? 8. If the clowns’ act lasted for thirty-five minutes each show how long did they perform altogether over the five days? (In hours and minutes.)

9. In their act the clowns fought a phoney fire during which they tossed 25 buckets of water. If each bucket held eight litres how much water did they toss over the five weekdays? 10. The clowns’ ages totalled to 120 years. If Pippie and Pippetto were the same age and 3 years older than Pippellina, how old was each of them?

11. Pippellina walked on a tightrope 4.25 metres up in the air. As part of the act she “fell” but the safety rope stopped her just 85 centimetres off the ground. How far did she fall?

12. Pippetto’s big act was to bungy jump from twenty metres up. The first time the bungy rope stretched 5 metres 25 centimetres and each time after that it stretched three quarters of a metre less. How many times did it stretch before it stopped? 13. Pippie played a trumpet, Pippetto the drums and Pippellina the banjo. They made as much noise as they could, so in one minute Pippie tooted 172 notes, Pippetto pounded 268 notes and Pippellina plonked 142 notes. How many notes was this altogether?

14. What was the average number of notes that they each played over the minute? 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234567890123456789012123456789012345678901234567890 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234567890123456789012123456789012345678901234567890 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234567890123456789012123456789012345678901234567890 1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234567890123456789012123456789012345678901234567890 Ready-Ed Publications

This is an activity for two teams of two players each. The teams flip a coin to see who bats first. The fielding team contains a bowler and a fielder, the batting team contains two batters.

•

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

•

Each of the fielders and one of the batters enters a two-digit number into their calculator in secret. The number may not end in a zero.

•

The first member of the fielding team (the bowler) and the batter show their numbers.

•

They multiply their numbers together so that they end up with the same number. They should check to make certain. (If at any time the batter miscalculates and it can be proven, then she/he is out on a technicality, such as knocking into the wicket. If the bowler makes a miscalculation then it is considered a “no ball” and the batting team gets a run. If an error occurs and it can’t be proven to be anyone’s fault, then it is considered a “dead ball” and the sequence starts again.)

•

© ReadyEdPubl i cat i ons The second member of the fielding team (the fielder) shows his/her number and the other two orbyr e vi e wshouldpcheck ur p os es nhave l y multiply • theirf numbers it. Again, they to make certain thato they the• same number.

w ww

The fielder reduces the number to one digit by adding its digits together to find the batter’s result. If at first the total of the digits is still more than one digit she/he should continue adding the digits.

m . u

•

For example, if the number is “16567”, the digits added together equals “25” and these added together come to “7”. Therefore the result for the batter is the single digit answer “7”. •

. te

o c . che e r o t r s super

The single digit indicates the batter’s result as follows: “1 – 6” equals that many runs. “7 – 9” = Out! (“7” = bowled or LBW, “8” = caught out and “9” = run out or stumped.)

•

The second member of the batting team keeps the scorecard.

•

This continues until the batter gets out or has settled five times, then the other member of the team takes over the batting.

•

When each of the batting team members has had five turns at bat they become the fielding team and the other two players take their turn at bat.

•

Obviously, the winning team is the one with the most runs at the end of the match.

•

Don’t forget to make up the name of a team and also the name of a trophy! Add to scoreboard.

Dominoes: Teachers’ Notes

Maths Zone

DOMINOES (INFORMATION FOR THE TEACHER) DROP DOMINOES: For two players or two teams. Each player or team takes a different Drop Dominoes Player’s Sheet (there are four different ones to choose from) and places a Drop Dominoes Game Sheet between them on which they write their names and the date. Next, they choose which set on their player’s sheet they will play. There are six sets to choose from on each sheet. The players need not choose the same set. Next they decide who goes first. The first player picks any domino tile on the set he/she chose to play, marks it on any empty tile space on the Drop Dominoes Game Sheet and crosses it off his/ her game sheet. It makes no difference in which direction a tile is marked on the games sheet. That is, a 3-6 tile is the same as 6-3. If the tile chosen by the first player also appears on the set chosen by the second player then he/she also crosses it off his/ her game sheet. The second player now finds a tile from the set he/she is using that fits alongside the one drawn. If he/she can’t then he/she passes and the first player has another shot. The game continues in this fashion until one of the players runs out of tiles and is the winner. Total the pips left in the other player’s set to work out the winner’s score. Alternatively, if neither player can drop a tile or all the empty tile spaces on the Drop Dominoes Game Sheet have been used, then the players add up how many pips they have remaining. The one with less is the winner and gets that many points. The outright champion is the one with more points after playing all five games on the Drop Dominoes Game Sheet.

MATHS DOMINOES:

Two players take twelve dominoes each, which they keep hidden from each other. The leftover tiles are put aside as the stock. Players choose who goes first and that player places any tile on the table face up. The other player has to place a tile over it that mathematically matches. This is done by applying any mathematical operation to the tiles to get equal answers. For example, if the tile placed on the table was 3:4, the mathematical operations applied to this can result in 3 + 4 = 7; 3 x 4 = 12; 4 – 3 = 1; 4 ÷ 3 = 11/3; and 3 ÷ 4 = ¾. So the player can use a 5:6 tile and say, “4 – 3 = 1; 6 – 5 = 1; a match.” Or use a 2:6 tile and say, “3 x 4 = 12; 2 x 6 = 12; a match.” Players must always state the mathematical operations. (Teachers can tell the students to exclude division.) If a player is unable to make a mathematical match he/she takes just one of the stock, if there are any, and tries to match it. If she still can’t the turn moves on. The game continues in this fashion until one of the players runs out of tiles and is declared the winner. If neither player can mathematically match a tile and there are none left in the stock they add up how many pips they still have remaining. The player with less is declared the winner of the game.

DOMINOES BINGO: A whole class activity. Students are given a blank Dominoes Bingo sheet (see page 44). The teacher states which type will be played (a seven, nine or twelve Tile Row), then shuffles the dominoes and picks one at random that he/she shows to the students. The students decide whether to use this tile or reject it. Those who accept it write its value over any one of the empty tiles in the row. Note, only doubles can be placed on the vertically drawn empty tiles. The students can use numbers instead of dots and zeros are used for the blanks. The aim is to accept the tiles that complete the row but tiles can only be placed adjacent to one another if their pip values match. Students may choose any tiles they wish and place them over any empty tile in the row – even one that is not touching other accepted tiles. However, at the end all the drawn-in dominoes must be correctly touching. Once a tile is accepted and drawn it cannot be altered. If the teacher goes through all the dominoes without a winner, the tiles are reshuffled and gone through again. Students may not accept a tile that they have already drawn in. This process continues until there is a winner or all the students have blocked themselves out and cannot win. When students block themselves, discuss the value of planning ahead and the use of strategy.
