Quarters

We have been learning that a quarter is 1 of 4 equal parts. We shaded a quarter of a shape, cut shapes into quarters, used rulers to draw lines on shapes and objects to split it onto quarters. Then for a green challenge, we had 1/4 of a shape and had to draw which whole shape it could be from. It was very tricky so we used paper shapes to work it out. Some of us made squares and some of us made rectangles. Most of us found it very challenging to draw the shape! Shout out to Riley who nailed it! 👏 #loveplover

Aircraft Museum

The children have been so well behaved at the aircraft museum this morning! We really enjoyed exploring the different planes and helicopters and getting to sit in the cockpits.

Maths

Today, we learned to share into equal groups. We worked out how many each person would get if we shared a number of sweets equally between different amounts.

Maths

We have had a mathematical day today! We’ve been making equal groups and then doing repeated addition using our knowledge of counting in 2s, 5s and 10s. It’s been brilliant! We’ve all enjoyed finding answers, using manipulatives. It’s been hands on- just how we like it! 👍

Multiplication

This week we have been counting in 2s,5s and 10s. Today, we made equal groups of 5 and tried to count them in 5s. Some of us needed to use a 100 square to help us see the pattern of counting in 5s. We are going to practice counting aloud in 5s to 50. Maybe you could try at home too to make it easier to count things in groups of 5. Most of us were good at counting aloud in 2s and 10s so we could count the groups more easily.
