Welcome to Twoland. Every number is two more than the one before. Imagine if Two was the first friend in Numberland. Cut out the pictures and paste them on the opposite page to create a picture for Two!
Grab a friend to play this game. Who will finish first? Choose who is player 1 and who is player 2. Count down
from 10 to one, then shout, "Go!" Answer all the questions as quickly as you can! Whoever gets to the
finish first wins! Remember that squares are special rectangles.
Ready for lift-off? Roll a die and play a number coloring game. Here's how it works:
- Find a friend, a die. and coloring pencils. Choose who will be player 1 and who will be player 2.
- Take it in turns to throw the die. Color the parts of the picture that contain the number you roll (use the color key to help you). If they’re already colored in, miss a turn.
- The first player to color their picture is the winner!
Start at the bottom and write to finish the pyramid stacks. Two numbers below add up to the number above. Use the number line to help you! Got it? Let's try some bigger numbers!
Sing along with all your square friends... right up to One Hundred. Can you figure out how many blocks wide and tall all the squares are?
"Even though we're different sizes,
you can always recognize us.
We're as tall as we are wide,
We're the same turned on each side."
It's the big game! Who's on Eleven's team? Color him in along with in his teammates One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, and Ten. How many players are on the field. Count them!
Join Numberblock Fourteen at the skate park! Help Fourteen finish the doubles by tracing the numbers and filling in the gaps. Cut out Fourteen and his lucky Double Sevens and have fun whizzing them about the halfpipe ramps below.
Sing Fourteen's song:
I'm 14, I'm 10 and 4, I'm also double 7!
I'm riding on an elevator straight to skater heaven!
And whenever I get into a fix,
in the middle of one of my brand-new tricks,
I've got my lucky double to get me out of trouble...
Lucky double Seven!
What’s going on in Numberland? You decide, Number Explorer! Ask a grown-up to cut out the pictures. Pop them in any order on the opposite page. Then make up a super story to go along with the pictures. When you're done, you can shuffle the pictures and make up a brand-new story!
Cut out the shapes and paste to make a picture. Choose from red circles, orange rectangles, yellow triangles, green quadrilaterals, blue pentagons, purple hexagons, and rainbow heptagons (that's a seven-sided figure!). Are there heptagons at your party?
The Odd Blocks and Even Tops are ready to play! Do the puzzles to join the teams. Choose an odd and even number for the scores. Who's in the lead? Circle the Odd Block team in red and the Even Tops team in blue!
Six is here to let you know what a pattern really is. Can anything be a pattern? Not exactly. You can't just take a bunch of stuff, a random order's not enough. A pattern has a rule that checks with every step what happens next. If every step, the rule's the same, you've found the pattern, that's the game.
Let's all count to 20 in lots of different ways. Can you write and count out loud to 20 using the fingers and toes? Try it on your own fingers and toes! Next, can you count up to 20 in steps of two? How about four? Five?
