Amazing Arrays

Firstly Miss Mudd would like to say a huge thank you to all of the staff at Springfield for looking after her class whilst she was poorly. They were in very good hands and were doing some fantastic learning.

This week we have been learning all about grouping items and linking this to multiplication. We practised grouping items and used lots of different objects around the classroom eg. bottle tops, cubes, pencils, toys and even children! We were then introduced to the different types of language that we can use such as: sets of, groups of, times, multiply.

We were then introduced to arrays. We looked at pictures of arrays in our everyday lives and talked about how it can help us count quickly. We used sponge painting to make our own arrays and described them using the language we had been taught.

 

We even went outside and used the cones and giant dots to work in groups and create different arrays.

 

Maths can be so much fun!!

We enjoyed some free play outside in the sunshine this week. We played with the construction materials, danced with the ribbons, practised our ball skills and even did some group reading outside. We used the ribbons to write our digraphs in the sky!

We also wanted to say a big well done to Miss Harrison and her class for their wonderful assembly. It was so nice to see the progress that our P1 children have made and it meant a lot to look back on the special memories we have all made together.
