We have been learning how to compare numbers and quantities. Here we are, collecting fish and ducks, grouping them by different characteristics and comparing the size of these groups....

We have been learning about shape in Maths. We had lots of fun building and drawing Tetromino and Pentomino arrangements. A Tetromino shape uses four square tiles while a Pentomino shape uses 5. We used the squares of our book as a helpful guide....
We have been exploring 2D shapes and their properties. We have been grouping them, comparing them and creating repeated patterns....
In our maths lessons we have been learning about angles in shapes. We played guess the shape with a partner. Mohammed described his shape as having 4 right angles and four sides of the same length. Can you guess the shape?...
In Maths we have been investigating the laws of distributivity and the commutative law in multiplication. We used counters to fine factor pairs for different numbers....
We made a ‘staircase’ of numbers to 5 and played a game of who’s missing to help with our knowledge of composition of numbers and quick number recognition....
We have been learning to compare the size of groups using key mathematical language such as more, greater than, less, fewer and same. In this picture, we were playing a hidden card game that helped us to identify which group had more and which group...
We have been subtracting using the part whole model and concrete resources. We learnt that the whole, subtract one of the parts is equal to the other part! We think part whole models are brilliant! ...
We have been learning all about multiplication! We began by looking at multiplying by 2 and then moved onto multiplying by 10 and 5. We used different resources to help us count in 2s before moving onto having a go in our heads. Bead strings...
We have been learning about measuring mass in mathematics. We have been estimating and then weighing objects from around our classroom accurately using weighing scales. We have been learning about how to use the right units of measure as well as how to read intervals...
