Maths

Welcome to Room 16 maths-

 
Here you can find out our current maths challenges and learning focusses.

Term 3

Current Whole Class Focusses:
  • Recalling doubles to 10 and then 20
  • Instantly recalling groupings to 10 ( 2 and 8, 7 and 3 etc...)

Current challenges:
  • Skip counting in 5's up to 50,and 10's up to 100
  • Cement skip counting in 2's from 12-20
  • Adding small numbers ion our mind (or fingers behind our back- try to add on and take away no more than 5 initially)


 
Weeks 10 and 11:

 
We have been foscussing on measurement.
  •  comparing lengths
  • using language to explain findings (e.g. shorter/ longer than, the same as etc...)
  • Area- the flat space something takes up
  • Weight- heavier/ lighter than
  • predicting ideas and finding ways to measure them

 
Week 6's Learning Focusses:
  • Adding and subtracting using counters and fingers and in our mind (imaging)
  • know numbers that can be grouped together to make 5 and ten. E.g. 4+1 and 6+4
  • Cementing numbers forwards and backwards to 20 and then 100! Especially those tricky ones like- 11, 12,13,15. And all those '10s' e.g. 29-30, 59-60...

 
We have been learning to:
  • skip count in 2's forwards and backwrads up to 20
  • read and solve addition up to 10, then 20 and then 100!
  • read the symbol for 1/2 and 1/4
We are challenged to:
  • solve addition by using our fingers behind our back or in our head
  • fluently skip count forwards fom 10 up to 20 in 2's
Today we practised skip counting sets in 2's.

 
 

 
Some of us counted past 20!
 

 

Super awesome work Room 16!!!
