He uses them to create body movements, matching and counting cherries for his buns, singing and drawing the numeral, all to help children with their numeracy skills. Children can help Rodd hunt for the numeral five on his shelf and join in with physical actions based on the number five. They can then help him solve a problem as he wonders how to find out whether he has enough cherries for his buns. Rodd then invites the children to sing the number five song and draw a large numeral five. This clip is from the BBC series Counting with Rodd. A fun series, featuring presenter Rodd, who uses rhymes and songs to help children with counting numbers, addition and subtraction.

Ask children to pretend to be frogs hopping around and, on a signal, they must gather into groups of five. Using plastic ducks, ask children to work out how many green paper ‘lily pads’ they would need for each duck to sit on a lily pad. Children can sort playpeople into sets of five, and count how many playdough sausages they need for each playperson to have a ‘sausage’. Children can dip the fingertips of one hand into thick paint and put one finger or thumb down on paper, one at a time, each time they hear a drum beat. This clip will be relevant for teaching Maths/Numeracy at Foundation and KS1 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and Early and first Level in Scotland. ===================== For more clips from other subjects at the BBC Teach YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/bbcteach More from BBC Learning Zone: http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone More resources from BBC Bitesize: http://www.bbc.co.uk/education ===================== Look out for more clips released every day on BBC Teach: Mondays: Biology, Computer Science, Music, Religious Studies Tuesdays: Drama and Performance, English Language, Maths, Physical Education Wednesdays: Languages, Media Studies, Modern Studies and PSHE, Physics Thursdays: Art and Design, Chemistry, Geography, History Fridays: Business Studies, Design and Technology, English Literature, Early Years
