In Room 10, we like to work hard on our maths. We like when our learning is tricky because that helps us to become better. We use lots of materials to help our counting, ordering, skip counting and doubling and halving. Our I Can sheets we use in class and in our home learning books help us to know what we can already do and what we are now working on.
We use whiteboards, iPads, photos and our big maths books to record our thinking and spend a lot of time talking to other children in our group about what we are learning and how we got to an answer. We also like to look at simple word problems that need us to solve them. This helps our reading and comprehension too!

This group has been working on their addition and subtraction, using teddy bears, counters and number lines |

This group has been working on placing an equal number of beans (we pretended they were sharks!) into containers (oceans!) |
In Room 10, we also have been looking at how long it takes to complete an activity to learn about duration. We are learning when school starts and finishes, and the order in which we complete our daily learning. To help at home, you could talk to us about the times and order we have dinner, do our reading and go to bed - or anything else we may do after school! This is a great holiday activity for us too, a daily diary showing what we do and when we do it.
