Is it odd or is it even?

In maths today we thought about whether numbers are odd or even and if they are a double. Some children used manipulatives, some used their fingers and some worked it out in their heads.

There was a lot of talk about the numbers.

These were some of the reasons.

It is odd because it doesn’t have afriend.

It is odd because it isn’t the same on each side. It means it isn’t a double.

This is a double because if you split it in the middle it makes 3 and 3.

I know it is a double because 5 and 5 makes 10 and that is the same.

Well done everyone.
