Subtraction

image image image image imageWe have been doing lots of subtraction in maths.  Subtraction means taking away.  The biggest number is at the start of the sum.  Some of us use cubes to help us.  Some of us like counters.  Sometimes we use fingers or number lines and sometimes we can even do it in our heads!

We do sums in jotters and we play games to help us.

We have subtraction jigsaws, subtraction matching, using dice to subtract the small number from the big number and a subtraction sums on lolly sticks to put in the right cup.

 

ICT

We have been learning to use the laptops and the iPads.

 

On the laptops we have learned how to draw in a program called TuxPaint and now we are learning to type using word.  We need to remember how to put a capital letter, a finger space and full stop.

 

We typed sentences about our school superheroes!

Snow fun

we liked building our snowmen. – Lewis

Primary 1 had lots of fun building snowmen. – Riley

 

This afternoon we went outside to play in the snow and build snowmen.  It was hard work, we were bending up and down and running all around to find things to help us make great snowmen. It was cold but were kept warm by moving around all the time!

 

Look at the pictures of the fun we had.

Sh

Now we know all our single letter sounds we have started learning joined phonemes. This is where two letter together make one sound.

Last week we learned sh. We thought of lots of words with sh in them and sounded them out. We tried to write them without looking!

Some of the words we thought of were shut, ship, shop, shed, shark, wash, sheep, dish, crash.

We played lots of games to help us with our spelling! Look at us learning…

Doubles

We have been learning to add 1 digit numbers. We have been learning about doubles. This is where the two numbers are the same.

Adding is putting 2 numbers together to get one bigger number (Aydin).

The adding machine helped us (Marcus).

We set the table in the home corner for two teddies. We had to set each place exactly the same to make them like doubles.

The other game that helped us was on the smart board and we counted spots on the ladybird.

Look at our pictures!
