Home challenge 1- Reception- Have 10-20 small objects each (lego bricks, duplo bricks, blocks, dinosaurs any small toy or objects) take turns to roll a dice. Each time, take away the number that you roll. For example, start with 10, roll a 3, take 3 away and count 7 left. Say the number sentence each time “ten take away three equals seven”. Write the number sentences in your home learning book.
