Primary 1 – Maths Week Scotland
Last week we were very busy  exploring different areas of maths. We explored money, tally marks and number.  On our village walk, we took tally marks to show how many vehicles we could spot. We have been playing with real coins in our class hairdressers and playing lots of different number games with partners.
