Today we played some maths games to practise counting, ordering and number sequencing. We really enjoyed it and wanted to try some at home.
Here is the website so we can access them at home:

Children in Need in P1/2
Today is children in need. We raised money by coming to school wearing our own clothes. We all donated £1 this morning.
Pudsey bear helped P1/2 with their maths today. Primary 1 were learning some adding using 2 Pudsey bears. We added counters to make the spots on Pudsey’s eye match. Then we added them together.
primary 2 used Pudsey to practise their doubles. We worked in pairs and we rolled the dice to tell us what number to double. We put spots on Pudsey’s eye patch to practise our doubles facts.
This afternoon we learned about how Pudsey helps children. We made our own story books about to take home.
Primary 2’s Place Value
This week we have been learning about tens and units. We have practised counting in multiples of 10. We learned a new game to help us practise tens and units. We needed to use playing cards with a partner to make the biggest number that we could.
Niamh – Our new game helped me with my maths.
Rhys – It helped me with my tens and units.
Adam – I really liked the game because I could pick different cards and it helped me.
Jason – I liked this game because I kept winning. I won every match.
Primary 1’s Super Counting Games
This week we learned two new number games. The first game helped us to practise our counting up to 10. It was called bead counting. We had to work in a group to choose. A little card with a number on it. We had to read the number and then we had to count the right number of beads. The second game we learned helped us think about our numbers too. We had to pick out a number and find other parts of the jigsaw that matched that number.
Benjamin – I enjoyed it.
Eva – I liked the bead counting.
William – I thought the games were good.
Erin – my favourite game was the beads.
Ayva- I liked playing with the beads.
Klea – I liked the jigsaws the best.
