Today we were focusing on pattern. We had the opportunity to create a necklace using beads, complete repeated shape patterns on the SmartBoard and use 3D objects to print 2D shapes. This activity was very successful as it opened up discussions about the properties of 3D shapes. We were also sharing the objects we found in our home as part of our homework challenge.
We then collated all of our printed shapes to make a door display, featuring a repeated pattern. Mrs Noble came along and saw us at lunch time and she was very impressed 🙂
We are also continuing to work on our number recognition and formation. As can be seen in the following video, for one activity each of us were given a number to write on the board. This challenged us to first identify the correct number and then write it. Mrs Stephenson likes having helpers so she chose a ‘teacher’ to lead the activity. The boys and girls love this responsibility!
Oh being the teacher is right up Mila’s street, forever playing teacher with her twins. Looks great fun.
