Today in maths, we have looked at doubling numbers. We doubled the ladybird’s spots and told our partners what double the number was. We then used our fingers to show double the numbers. We’re getting really good at remembering our doubles!
Last week in maths, we begun looking at pairs. We started off by taking items from a basket and finding our pair within the room. Next, Miss Welburn set us a challenge of pairing up all of the wellies from our pegs. We worked really hard to pair them all up and explained how we knew that they were pairs using size, patterns and colours.
We have been super busy in our maths lesson today 🙂 We have consolidated many areas! We looked at our timestables, fractions, pictograms and some arithmetic based questions. Great positive attitudes by all this morning 🙂
In maths we have been learning about 2d shapes. Today we investigated different regular and irregular shapes to see if they had lines of symmetry. We also learnt lots of new vocabulary including symmetry, symmetrical, horizontal and vertical!
In maths this week, we have been learning about angles and turns. Today, we learnt the terms acute, right and obtuse to describe angles and created our own.
Before half term, we had been learning about mass and capacity and what better way to apply what we had learnt than making pancakes! Carefully, we worked in groups to measure out the ingredients accurately. Finally, we added on our toppings of choice and then we got to eat them- delicious 😋
In magic maths, we have been looking at how to tell the time. We had a quick recap before having a go ourselves.
In maths, we used bagels to help us understand how to partition a mixed number. Some of us found this quite difficult but after Miss Shields demonstrate we feel a bit more confident with it. We’ll do some more fluency style questions tomorrow to ensure we can apply this knowledge.
Today in maths, we were exploring finding 1 more. We chose a number from the spinner, made it and found 1 more! We were really confident in making the number and then showing what 1 more would be using our tens frames and counters.
Today we looked at clockwise and anti clockwise, exploring turns. We looked at a quarter turn, a half turn, a three quarter turn and a full turn. We enjoyed exploring the turns with our own bodies 🙂 We then applied our learning to some written questions.
