Outdoor number exploring

Today we made the shape of a pentagon and agreed that it must have five corners and five sides but that the sides didn’t have to be the same length.

We then moved on to play some games to encourage us to think about how we manipulate numbers and the easiest way to add them together to find the total. We looked for numbers that add to ten first, this seemed to be the favourite strategy! After that we looked for double numbers and near doubles. It was amazing just how many different ways we found to add up a few numbers and it was great to see how other people do this.

Outdoor time

The sun shone all afternoon for us as we enjoyed learning about time outside today.

We played some warm up games to remind us about direction before moving on to making some numbers for our giant clock.

After that we talked about how the minute hand and hour hand move round the clock….

before making our own little clocks and playing some games with them showing how the hands on a clock move.

We then played a time hunt game where we had great fun hiding and searching for times to put on our giant clock.
