Over the past couple of weeks, P1b have been learning all about money. We have been looking at all the different coins and have been sorting, matching and ordering these. We know that the coins have different values and are different shapes and colours. Have a look at us working hard!
P1b have been working very hard in maths this week. We have now worked on forming all the numbers to 10 correctly and have been ordering and counting numbers very carefully. We have also looked at the number names to 5 and have been trying to match these with the numerals. Mrs Lloyd has been very impressed with our ten frame work and is proud of how quickly we can look at dot patterns and say the number that they represent. Here are some photos of us in action. Enjoy!!
This week, Mrs Lloyd’s maths group have been learning about greater than and less than. We have looked at the symbols and talked about how they could represent a crocodiles mouth as the open mouth would face towards the biggest number. The children also know that if the numbers are the same an equals sign would be used. Here are some photos of the children working hard. Well done everyone!
Last week in P1, we were learning about weight. We were sorting items into light and heavy and were using balance scales to find out which items were heavier, lighter and which ones were the same. Here are some photos of the children in action!
Mrs Lloyd’s maths group had fun in the sun last week when we were using the outdoor area to work on our counting in twos. The children were split up into four groups and rotated around a variety of activities to practise their skills in counting on in twos. One group, used the big number lines to jump forward and backwards in twos, another group painted numbers with water and counted on, another group used chalk to practise jumping in twos and the last group enjoyed a seat at the picnic table with their whiteboards and showed off how good they were at counting in twos. Good work everyone!!
Over the past two weeks, Miss Hewit has been teaching the class about telling the time on analogue clocks. She has been concentrating on o’clock times and has been very impressed with how well the children are doing both with reading the times and setting the hands on the clocks to show a variety of o’clock times. Today the children played some time games on the laptops and smartboard and were even making their own paper plate clock. Here are some photos of the children in action! Well done everyone.
