Please watch the video to 5:16 minutes!
The Professor is sure that 2, 3 and 5 are really significant in this film. He has explored everything around him to see if he can figure out why they are so important!
Today I want you to be like the professor and for you to explore these numbers. Have a look around your home, and whilst you are outside; from there, create a list explaining all of the things that you think link to these numbers. For example, I would write down the following:
- I am currently looking at my window and I can see the numbers in the window panes. There are 2 small panes at the top which relate to the number 2. Below these, I have 3 smaller window panes which relate to the number 3. I then figured out that if I add all the window panes together I will have 5 window panes.
Have you got maths eyes!?

Online Reading Books
This is a great interactive platform for online books linked to different cultures:
*Wellbeing Wake Up*
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXumjginrAvOILD-1PkJF_g/
Wellbeing Wake-up provides a boost of wellbeing to children through fun engaging activities. The sessions are aimed at primary aged children, parents/carers and education staff. The Bitesize sessions will be based around the 5 ways to wellbeing; connect, be active, take notice, keep learning and give. Each video will include a short explanation for adults on why it is important to promote wellbeing, followed by a ‘wake up and shake up’ for children’s minds and bodies to become focused, finished with a interactive activity that can be carried out between the child and adult.
