Counting in Crew Pashley

Today in Crew Pashley, we practiced counting different amounts using different objects. We are practicing counting amounts larger than 20 this week. Today, Charlie counted how many treats we had in our treat tub, and how many conkers Miss Haddock had given us. We also matched the number card to the correct amount of apples on the matching card.

Number lines

Yesterday in maths, we were looking at number lines. We learned how important it was to work out what the number line is going up in so that you are able to accurately complete it. Some of us found this a little tricky but we didn’t give up. It was lovely to see some of the crew supporting their peers when they became stuck.

Marvellous Maths

Crew Hamill have worked REALLY hard to master our maths this week. Today, we were learning how to partition numbers to 100. We started with numbers in their expanded form, partitioning them into tens and ones and then we stretched ourselves to think of different ways of partitioning. Did you know 35 can be split into 30 + 5, 20 + 15 and 10 + 25? We used base 10 to support our learning, giving a visual representation of what our numbers look like partitioned.

Maths!

We started our Place Value unit with a practical lesson focusing on our numbers to 20. We used bead bars to represent our numbers, partitioned numbers into tens and ones and even had a go at independently writing our numbers in words.
