We are learning to investigate and re-created well-known number patterns involving square numbers.
- I can create different representations of square numbers.
- I can create a square number by multiplying a number by itself.
- I am beginning to recognise square numbers up to 100.
Today in Maths we investigated square numbers. We first of all used counters to represent square numbers and patterns, then we had to work out the calculation we would need to use to calculate square numbers. For example, 2² is 2 x 2. The we played a game were we had to calculate square numbers and we completed a written activity.
Support at home: You can support your child at home by helping them learn square numbers for example; 1×1, 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, 5×5, 6×6, 7×7, 8×8, 9×9, 10×10
