Every week in form time there is a day dedicated to Numeracy at our school. I have designed a series of activities for form tutors to do with students during this time. They are designed to take around 5-10 minutes and to be age appropriate for any year.
These first 6 activities are ones I have recently adapted to cover the Numeracy requirements of the Citizenship curriculum. They involve a mixture of mini-quizzes and activities that can be projected for students to work on while other tasks are taking place.
