This video shows you how to complete the Hundreds Chart Mystery Picture as one of your daily maths activities. Have a hundreds chart sheet, colouring in pencils and instructions set kept near you. Have plenty of space on your work table or a clipboard ready to go.
Choose a mystery picture number, find the colouring in pencils that you need and look at the following instructions:
- Select one colour at a time and fill in all squares listed into the hundreds chart.
- Add a sum together to work out an answer, select the number found on the hundreds chart and colour in the square.
Take your time colouring in each number square. Can you work out what mystery picture you have made? Feel free to use texts or crayon (once you have checked all numbers on the hundreds chart first!) or add more colour to each square to brighten up the picture!

Literacy - Persuasive Topics
The following video will guide you on how to complete the Persuasive Topics activity with two sheets with four topic cards set on each sheet that you will find on your work pack. Follow these steps:

- Decide whether you agree or disagree with a chosen topic.
- Think about discussing the topic with your family, share your ideas and write or draw your ideas into a spare page in your workbook.
- Talk to your family and present by standing upright while holding onto your workbook saying out loud why you agree or disagree with your chosen topic. Keep in contact with your audience while speaking and presenting!
- Change your topic and switch sides. For example, if you agree with one topic, choose a different topic and make three points on why you have chosen to disagree with this topic.
Good luck! Looking forward to seeing many clever ideas!
