Buddy Numeracy

We worked with our P7 Buddies on some 100 square work, some adding and taking away challenges using our Numicon and other strategies to help us to ‘prove it’ to our buddy when we thought we had an answer. We also impressed them with our ‘fact family’ learning, where we show the link between number relationships. Miss Thompson gave us some tasks and we worked though them independently, showing off our learning and skills and explaining our thinking.

Story of 10

We have been using all of our number learning to create these lovely ‘story of 10’ rainbows.  It was a tricky job, but we used our Numicon to help us to see the ‘special friends’ who make 10 if we needed some help.  They match our large rainbow on the window.  This is there to help us to remember the importance of being confident and quick in remembering what numbers add to 10 as this skill is very important.
