Maths

This half term in Maths we have been learning about number and place value. We have enjoyed using different resources to help us show numbers and their values. We have also been using drawings to show our answers to help us understand different Maths concepts when we have to record our calculations.

Here are some of the things we have been learning to do:

recognise the place value of each digit in a two-digit number (tens, ones)
identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations, including the number line
compare and order numbers from 0 up to 100; use and = signs
read and write numbers to at least 100 in numerals and in words
use place value and number facts to solve problems.

Here are some of the things we have been learning to do in Maths this half term:

identify and describe the properties of 2-D shapes, including the number of sides and line symmetry in a vertical line
identify and describe the properties of 3-D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces
identify 2-D shapes on the surface of 3-D shapes, [for example, a circle on a cylinder and a triangle on a pyramid]
recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables, including recognising odd and even numbers
calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division within the multiplication tables and write them using the multiplication (×), division (÷) and equals (=) signs
solve problems involving multiplication and division, using materials, arrays, repeated addition, mental methods, and multiplication and division facts, including problems in contexts.

Parent Workshop!

We really enjoyed having our parents in for a Maths workshop. We had been learning all about money and adding coin values to make totals so we decided to share this learning with our mums and dads. We had lots of different problem solving and practical activities out for us to explore with our parents and really enjoyed showing off everything we knew about money! Thank you to those parents that could join us!
