In maths, the Squares have been learning to add 2 digit numbers together using a 100 number line by counting on in tens and then adding in ones. The Triangles group have been adding ten, twenty and thirty to 2 digit numbers. When we add on a ten, the units stay the same and the number of tens gets bigger. The Circles group have been making number bonds to 13 by using 13 cubes and subtracting different numbers each time to calculate what is left.
In the afternoons, we have been working on making a little table sitter of a 3D rainforest. One side of our model we had a lovely drawing of a rainforest and at the other side we had the rainforest chopped down to show deforestation.
Also, we have been learning about a frog’s life cycle. A frog starts off as an egg, then a tadpole grows inside the egg. The egg then cracks and hatches and the tadpole develops into a froglet.
