We are becoming much more confident adding two numbers together. This week the circles have been developing their skills in working out ‘rainbow 10s’.  These are the two numbers that go together to make ten. They have been learning to solve missing rainbow 10s numbers such as 6+?=10 using a variety of different materials and thinking processes.

The triangles are developing their skills in adding using cubes and their fingers. They enjoyed using the bean bags and roller to develop their skills in counting in 10s. They have also been learning to use numberlines to add 1 quickly.

Many of the children also chose to be a ‘teacher’ during maths time. They demonstrated a very good understanding of new maths concepts which they confidently taught to others.

Here are a selection of maths photos from this week.
