Don Spider says, "Try these worded problems..."

Shape - Space - Measures:

  1. Daisy has £10. She buys a new bow. Daisy is given change of £2 after buying the bow as well as a bracelet that costs £3.

       How much does the bow cost?

       Which costs less, the bow or the bracelet?

       How much did the bow and bracelet cost altogether?

  1. All of Daisy’s legs are the same length. If one leg is 2cm, how long are all the legs when put together end to end?

  1. Mr Spider jumps 5m up a webby thread. Dan jumps 200cm up the same thread. What is the difference between the two heights?

  1. What is…

      In front of the laptop?

      Next to the tube of glue?

      On top of the desk?

Numbers:

Counting in 2s – counting the number of eyes each member of the Spider family has.

Counting in 5s. There are 5 members in the Spider family.

Counting in 8s. Each member of the family has 8 legs.

Actually most spiders have 2 eyes, others have 4, 6 and even 8 eyes!
