MATHS

We have started revising reading the ‘o’clock’ time using analogue and digital clocks. Look around the house for any clocks and see if you can spot when they say an ‘oclock’ time. Can your child explain what the hands on the analogue clock are for? Can they explain what the numbers on the digital clock are for? Which hands/ numbers are for the hour and which are for the minutes?

Can they draw some analogue or digital clocks in their jotters?

We were in the ICT room today to use ‘Sumdog’ to help us with our maths.

MATHS

We will be working on subtraction sums within 20 and using the strategy of bridging back to number 10 when subtracting. For example 14 – 6 would be worked out this way –

14 – 4 = 10      Then  10 – 2 = 8  (taking away 4, then taking away the 2 is the same as taking away 6).

so 14 – 6 = 8

Try lots of subtraction sums like this as well as asking lots of oral questions to increase speed and accuracy.

Today we used our number lines to help us to bridge across 10 when we take away.

We worked on alliteration and character descriptions as part of World Book Day. We also made puppets of the characters in the story and got to act it out.

Remember tomorrow is the Pancake Breakfast. Why not come along in the morning to enjoy a cup of tea and pancakes and be entertained by the children singing. Primary 2 and Primary  2/3 will be singing at approximately 10.20am.
