Hello everyone.

I am Ms. Asel and I'm feeling really excited because guess what we're going to do together? We are going to do some handwriting.

I love sharing handwriting.

I love forming new letters together, making patterns.

It's also much fun.

So what you need to be ready is to have your eyes ready looking.

You need your ears ready to listen out for keywords.

And we're gonna be warming up our hands and our wrists soon.

So you'll need those ready.

And let's begin.

Let's have a great time.

The outcome for today's lesson is I can correctly form the numeral six to 10.

It's going to be really exciting to have a look at how we form all of these numerals.

Are you ready to get started? Let's do it.

There are a few keywords that will come up in today's lesson.

I'd like you to listen out for these words and look out for them.

And here they are.

Let's do my turn your turn.

Continuous motion, numeral, digit.

Okay, I hope you've got those and you're looking out for those and that you've got those in your mind.

Let's get into finding out what this lesson contains.

So this lesson has three parts to it.

The first part is practise forming the numeral six and seven.

Next we'll practise forming the numerals eight and nine and then we'll practise forming the numeral 10.

Let's get started with this first section and some warmups.

Let's have a go at the finger touch warmup.

I'll go first of all and then it will be your 10.

I'm going to imagine I've got a little bit of Play-Doh here on my thumb and I'm just gonna touch that Play-Doh with each of my fingers.

So this is the finger touch warmup and I can go backwards, it can go back in the other direction forwards and backwards.

I'm gonna take my other hand.

Imagine I've got a little bit of Play-Doh there and I'm gonna just touch the piece of Play-Doh with each of my fingers going the other way.

So you can just go back and forth in each direction.

Wonderful.

Now it's your turn.

Are you ready? Take whichever hand you want to begin with and imagine a little bit of Play-Doh there.

And you're just gonna touch the Play-Doh with each of your fingers.

Each of your fingers is stretching out, reaching down and touching that Play-Doh and you can go in the other direction.

Try with your other hand there's your little bit of Play-Doh.

So you're gonna touch it with each of your fingers.

You can go back in the other direction.

Fantastic.

Should we do some really fun? Both hands at the same time.

There's your bit of Play-Doh.

Let's go.

So we're gonna touch the bit of Play-Doh.

We're gonna go back the other way and we're gonna speed it up.

Do you wanna try that? Speeding it up a little bit in one direction.

The other direction.

What fun.

Next we're going to have a go at the wiper wrists warmup.

This is really gonna help our wrists and is gonna be good for our imagination 'cause we are going to imagine that we are in some kind of vehicle.

So we could be in a car or a bus or a van or whatever you like something that has windows and we're imagining that it's raining really hard and we don't want that rain to get in the way of us seeing clearly through the windows.

So we are going to be wiping the windows with these windscreen wipers.

Who knew that our hands could be really effective windscreen wipers.

So let's just do this.

Let's keep wiping away that rain and now it's your turn.

Are you ready? Get your hands up, your windscreen wipers, and let's go.

Oh my goodness, it's raining so hard.

We really need to get this rain off of our screen so we can see clearly and so that we can get to school or the park or the library or wherever is our favourite place to go.

Well done, great job.

Here's the number six.

It's appeared on our screen.

Look closely at it.

What do you see? What do you notice about the numeral six Turn and tell the person next to you what you can see.

Pause the video here.

Did you notice that the number six, the numeral six starts up here on the ascender line.

It's sits on a baseline and it's made of one curved line.

Give yourself a thumbs up or give me a thumbs up.

Let me see that thumbs up if you notice those things.

Well done.

Let's find out more about the numeral six.

The numeral six starts on the ascender line and the numeral six sits on the baseline.

The numeral six is formed with one continuous motion in an anti-clockwise direction.

So let's go into some of our keywords here.

So we've talked about numeral and so en numeral is a symbol that stands for a number.

So here we have the number six and this is what it looks like.

This numeral that we can see that's the numeral on that we see on the screen there.

And the numeral six is formed in one continuous motion.

Continuous motion means where we just keep going.

We make one movement or one motion without lifting our pencil from the page.

So we just keep going one continuous motion.

A numeral is a digit that represents a number.

So all of the numbers from zero up to nine, each of those is a digit.

And if we were to put two of those digits together, we could also say that that is a numeral.

Let's say if we had a one and a six, that would be 16.

So each of those numbers, the one and six, those are each digits, but when we put them together to make 16, that is a numeral and also we could say a numeral.

We could also have a numeral, which is just one digit like we can see here this six, this number six.

So we could say it's the numeral six.

So numeral is a way of presenting or showing a number.

Let's have a go at forming the numeral six in the air.

I'm going to have a go first using my finger and then it will be your turn.

So I'm going to start at the ascender line and I'm going to go in an anti-clockwise direction.

So not clockwise, not the way that a clock goes, but the other way.

So I'm going anti-clockwise and I'm going all the way down to the baseline and then I'm coming back up and it curling around into the X-height line.

Let me show you that one more time.

I'll start at the ascender line and I'm going anti-clockwise down to the baseline and then I'm curling back up around and into the X-height line.

Are you ready for your 10? Put your finger up here.

Ready at the ascender line.

Let's go anti-clockwise all the way down to the baseline.

Keep going.

Curling around into the X-height line.

One more time.

Start at the ascender line.

Go around anti-clockwise down to the baseline.

Keep going up, around and into the X-height line.

Wonderful.

Those sixes look really, really nice.

I'm going to show you how to form the numeral six.

I'm sitting comfortably.

My pens in a tripod grip.

I'm going to start on the ascender line and I'm going to go round in an anti-clockwise direction all the way down to the baseline.

And then I'm gonna curl back around up to the ex exit line to close the circle.

Let's try that again.

Start on the ascender line.

You go anti-clockwise all the way down to the baseline, then curl back around and close the circle at the X-height line.

Let's try one more.

Start from the ascender line, curling around anti-clockwise down to the baseline, curling around into the X-height line.

Check for understanding which is the correct formation of the numeral six.

Take a look at these three.

Choose which is the correct six.

Pause the video while you decide.

Well done if you picked A.

That six is sitting correctly in between the ascender line and the baseline and the line is made of one continuous motion.

The six is made of one continuous motion and that one is looking very good.

I hear something else that's looking good.

Here's the number seven.

This is a very good looking numeral seven that has appeared on our screen.

Look closely at it.

What do you notice? What do you see? Pause the video and tell someone next to you everything that you can see about this numeral seven.

So many things to notice.

Did you notice where it's sitting? Sitting on a baseline.

Did you notice that it goes all the way up to the ascender line? Did you notice that it's made of two lines: a straight line, and a diagonal line.

That's fun.

Let's find out more about the numeral seven.

The numeral seven starts on the Celine.

The numeral seven sits on the baseline.

The numeral seven is formed with one continuous motion.

So remember, continuous motion means we don't lift our paper.

Sorry, we don't lift our pencil from the paper.

We keep our pencil on without one continuous motion.

The numeral seven is formed of a horizontal line and a diagonal line.

I'm going to have a go at forming the numeral seven in the air and then it will be your turn.

So I'm going to begin up on the ascender line and I'm going to make our horizontal line across and then I'm going to make a diagonal line down to the baseline.

That was it.

It's so simple.

It's really quite straightforward.

Two lines.

Let's go again.

From the ascender line, I go across horizontal and then a diagonal down to the baseline.

Are you ready for your turn? Put your finger in the air on your imaginary ascender line.

Let's go horizontal line and diagonal line to the baseline.

One more horizontal diagonal.

It's hard to stop when you get going with these number sevens.

They feel pretty good, don't they? Well done everyone.

I'm going to show you how to form the numeral seven.

I'm sitting comfortably.

The pen is in the tripod grip.

I'm going to start on the ascender line and I'm going to make a horizontal line across the ascender line, then a diagonal line down to the baseline.

Let's try that again.

Start at the ascender line, horizontal line, across and then a diagonal line down to the baseline.

So we do make this numeral seven with one continuous motion.

Horizontal line across, diagonal line down.

And we keep our pen on the page the whole time.

Check for understanding which is the correct formation of the numeral seven.

Take a look at these three sevens.

Choose which one is correct.

Pause the video here.

Well done, if you selected seven in the middle, that one is made up of two lines and it's made in one continuous motion.

For your task, I'd like you to practise forming the numeral six and seven.

First of all, go over the grey examples.

Next, try using the starting dot.

And finally complete two lines independently on your tramlines.

Enjoy every six, enjoy every seven.

See you when you're finished.

Pause the video here.

How did you get on forming those numerals? The sixes, the sevens.

Did you use one continuous motion to form the numeral six? Did you go around in an anti-clockwise direction? How about the numeral seven? Did you use one continuous motion to form the numeral seven? Did you draw a straight line and then a diagonal straight line? Circle your best six, your best seven and celebrate.

Well done everybody.

Next we're going to practise forming the numerals eight and nine.

Here's the eight here it is on our screen, right in the middle.

What do you notice about it? What can you see? Tell the person next to you everything you notice about the numeral eight.

Pause the video here.

So many things to notice.

Did you notice the position of the eight? It's starting up here on the ascender line.

It's sitting comfortably on the baseline.

Did you notice that it has curved lines and that those lines are crossing? They cross in the centre, the X-height line.

Let's find out some more.

The numeral eight reaches up to the ascender line.

The numeral eight sits on the baseline.

The numeral eight has one long curved line which crosses on the X-height line.

The numeral eight is made with one continuous motion.

I'm going to have a go at forming the numeral eight in the air with my finger and then it will be your turn.

So I'm going to start up at the ascender line and I'm going to go in an anti-clockwise direction.

So not the way the clock goes the other way, which is anti-clockwise.

So I'm gonna go in an anti-clockwise direction down to the X-height line.

Then I'm going to curl around in a clockwise direction down to the baseline.

I'm gonna keep going curling up to the X-height line.

I'm gonna cross the line I've already made and then curl around in an anti-clockwise direction back to where I started.

Let me show you again.

So I'll start at the ascender line.

I go anti-clockwise into the X-height line, then I go clockwise to the baseline.

Then I go another curl up to the X-height line.

I'm gonna cross the X-height line and then I'm gonna curl up in anti-clockwise direction to where I started.

There we go.

Numeral eight.

Are you ready to have a go at forming the numeral eight in the air? Start at the ascender line.

Let's have a go together.

Anti-clockwise, curl into the X-height line, and then clockwise.

We're gonna curl into the down to the baseline and we're gonna keep going with that curl and cross the line we've already made.

And then we're gonna curl and clockwise direction back to where we started.

Let's try again.

So start at the top, we're going anti-clockwise and then we're going clockwise down to the baseline and we're curling around crossing at the X-height line and then curling back up to where we started.

Wonderful, well done performing those curly curvy letter eight.

They're looking great.

I'm going to show you how to form the numeral eight.

I'm sitting comfortably.

My pen is in the tripod grip.

I'm going to start at the ascender line and I'm gonna curl in an anti-clockwise direction down to the X-height line.

Then I'm gonna curl in a clockwise direction down to the baseline.

I'm gonna keep curling and cross that line.

And then I'm gonna curl anti-clockwise.

Back up to close the circle.

Let's try that again.

So I'll start at the ascender line.

Anti-clockwise curling down to the X-height line.

Keep curling, clockwise down to the baseline.

Keep going around, cross that line and then curling around to meet the circles.

And let's start again at the ascender line.

I'm going anti-clockwise down to the X-height line.

I'm going clockwise down to the baseline.

Keep curling around.

Cross that line and enjoying the circle at the top.

Check for understanding which is the correct formation of the numeral eight.

Take a look at these three eights before you, which is the right one.

Pause the video while you decide.

Well done if you selected that eight in the middle, which is made with one continuous motion and the hole of that eight is linked up together, there's no gaps.

And here's the nine.

Have a look at this.

Numeral nine has appeared on our screens.

Look closely.

What can you see? What do you notice? Tell someone nearby everything you can see about and everything that you notice about this numeral nine.

Pause the video Well done.

Did you notice that it's going all the way up as high as the ascender line.

It's sitting on the baseline.

It's got a curved line and it's got a straight line.

Let's find out out some more.

The numeral nine reaches up to the ascender line.

The numeral nine sits on the baseline.

The numeral nine has one curved line and one straight line.

The numeral nine is made with one continuous motion.

That means we don't take our pencil off the page, we just keep moving in one continuous motion.

I'm going to have a go at forming the numeral nine in the air and then it will be your turn.

So I'm going to start just beneath the ascender line and I'm gonna go in an anti-clockwise direction up to the ascender line.

And then I'm gonna keep curling around to the X-height line and then back up to where I started.

And then one straight line down to the baseline.

That's it.

One continuous motion.

Let me show you again.

So start just beneath the ascender line.

Go up to the ascender line, anti-clockwise.

I'm curling around down to the baseline.

Back up to where I started.

And one straight line down to the baseline.

Here's your turn.

Are you ready? Are your fingers at ready? Just beneath the ascender line, let's go up to the ascender line.

Anti-clockwise, curl around down to the X-height line.

Back up to where we started.

And all the way down to the baseline, one continuous motion.

Let's have another go from the ascender line.

Just beneath the ascender line.

Let's go up to that line.

Curl around.

And then anti-clockwise direction to the baseline to the X-height line.

Back up to where we started.

Down to the baseline.

Wonderful.

Those lines are looking good.

I'm going to show you how to form the numeral nine.

I'm sitting comfortably and my pen is in the tripod grip.

I'm going to start just below the ascender line.

I'm gonna go up to the ascender line, curl around in an anti-clockwise direction down to the X-height line back up to where I started.

And then all the way down straight line down to the baseline.

So I'm doing this in one continuous motion.

So don't lift my pen when I'm forming the numeral line.

Let's start again.

So just below the ascender line, I'm gonna go up to the ascender line, anti-clockwise curling around to the X-height line back up to where I started and then straight down to the baseline.

Let's try one more.

Go up to the ascender line, anti-clockwise all the way around to the X-height line.

Back up to where I started.

And down to the baseline.

Check for understanding.

Which is the correct formation of the numeral nine? Have a look at these three nines.

Hmm, what do you think? Which is the nine for us? Pause the video while you decide.

Well done if you selected that first nine, that one is in between the ascender line and the base line and it's been made in one continuous motion.

For your task, I want you to practise forming the numerals eight and nine.

First of all, go over the grey examples.

Next, try using the starting dot.

And finally complete two lines independently on your tram lines.

Have fun, focus, see you when you're finished.

Pause the video here.

How did you get on with forming the numerals eight and nine? So for the eights, did you use one continuous motion to form the numeral eight? Did your two curved lines cross the X-height line? How about the nines? Did you use one continuous motion to form the numeral nine? Did you draw a curve line and then a straight line? Take a look at all of these numerals before you circle your best words.

Celebrate.

And now we are onto our final part of the lesson where we will practise forming the numeral 10.

Here it is.

Here's the 10.

Look closely.

Ooh, there's something a little bit different about this numeral, what do you notice about this numeral? It's a bit different to the other ones that we've been looking at.

What can you see? Tell the person next to you and pause the video here.

Okay, there's a lot going on here.

Let's start with some of the things that we've covered before that this is going up as high as the ascender line.

It's sitting on the baseline and it's made up.

This is the really interesting bit.

This numeral is made up of two digits.

So do you remember we looked at that at the beginning? So a digit is like the one, the zero, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine.

They are all digits and we can put two digits together to make a numeral.

So this numeral 10 is made up of two digits or when they're just by themselves.

Or we could call those numerals as well.

Another thing to notice is that the first digit or the numeral one is made up of straight line and the zero is made up of a curved line.

What else can we find out about the numeral 10? The numeral 10 has two digits.

The numeral 10 is formed of the numerals one and zero.

So they're each numerals and together they form the numeral 10.

The numerals one and zero start on the ascender line and they sit on the baseline.

Each of the numerals is made with one continuous motion.

I'm going to have a go at forming the numeral 10 in the air with my finger.

And then afterwards it will be your 10.

So this is interesting, isn't it? This is fun.

'Cause we've got two digits here.

We've got to form the numeral 10.

So we're gonna make actually two different digits in the air.

I'm gonna start with the one.

I'll start at the ascender line and go straight down, pick my pencil up, and then I'm gonna go to the as sender line again and I'm gonna curl around in an anti-clockwise direction to the baseline and then curl back up to where I started.

There we go.

Super, super simple.

The numeral 10.

Let me show you again for the one, the first digit.

I can start at the ascender line straight down, pick my pen up, go back up to the ascender line and go in an anti-clockwise direction down to the baseline.

Curling back up and around.

There's my 10.

Where is your 10? That's what I want to know.

Are you ready to show me your 10? Let's go set up on the ascender line straight down for the numeral one.

Pick your pencil up and let's go back up to the ascender line and we're gonna curl around in an anti-clockwise direction to the baseline.

Back up to where we started.

Let's try again.

Ready at the ascender line.

Let's do the one, straight down.

Pick up your pencil, back up to the ascender line, anti-clockwise curling round to the baseline.

Back up to where we started.

Look at those tens.

10 outta 10 everyone.

That's what I would give you.

Great, great stuff.

I'm going to show you how to form the numeral 10.

I'm sitting comfortably, my pen is in the tripod grip.

So the numeral 10 has two other numerals within it, two digits within it.

We're going to start with the one which starts at the ascender line, goes all the way down to the baseline.

One straight line.

Lift up my pen back up to the ascender line, and I'm going around in an anti-clockwise direction down to the baseline.

And I'm curling back up to close the circle.

Let's try that again.

Start at the ascender line for the one straight down to the baseline.

Lift up my pen back up to the ascender line, and I'm going anti-clockwise all the way down to the baseline.

Back up, now close the circle.

Let's try one more.

Let's start at the ascender line straight down for the one.

Pick up my pen to make the zero.

Starting at the ascender line, going all the way around to the baseline, back up to where I started.

Check for understanding.

Which is the correct formation of the numeral 10? Have a look at these three.

Which one would you choose? Which one gets your 10 out of 10? Pause the video while you decide.

Well done if you picked the 10 above the C, that one has got the number one standing up nice and straight, and a zero has been formed in one continuous motion with the numeral joining up at the top.

For your task, I'd like to practise forming the numeral 10.

First of all, go over the grey examples.

Next, try using the starting dots.

And finally, complete two lines independently on your tram lines.

Enjoy every 10.

Every ten's a winner.

Pause the video here.

How did you get on with forming the numeral 10? To form the numeral one, did you start on the ascender line and make a straight line down to the baseline? To form the numeral zero, did you go round in an anti-clockwise direction? Circle your best 10 and celebrate.

In a lesson formation of numeral six to 10.

We've covered the following.

The formation of the numeral six, seven, eight, and nine can be done in one continuous motion without lifting your pencil.

The formation of the numeral 10 requires you to lift your pencil as it has two separate digits.

The numeral six, seven, eight, nine, and 10 all sit between the ascender line and the baseline.

Well done everyone.

It was so good to spend time with you exploring and forming these numerals, and I can't wait to see you for the next lesson.
