Common Reading Words

Practise reading your words in orange from the word wall at the back of your jotter and any words from your word wallet. Do this EVERY night.

Maths

We are learning how to add on from number 9 using a 10 number frame.

We learned 9 + 3  is the same as 10 + 2. This example shows this;

Draw two 10 frames in your jotter and use small objects to help you with these sums (use smarties/coco pops/pennies etc to count with).

Try these sums;

9 + 2 = ¨       9 + 4 = ¨         9 + 3 = ¨

9 + 6 = ¨       9 + 5 = ¨         9 + 1 = ¨
