Today we started our new learning in maths! We began exploring the concept of addition. The children collected some mathematical vocabulary about addition. Then, we explored the concept using different activities. The children used numicon and multi link to solve 2 digit by 1 digit addition and used part whole models to explore 3 by 1 digit addition.
On Thursday we developed our conceptual understanding of counting in steps. The children used lots of practical activities to explore the concept and then have since applied it to maths star challenges! I am so proud of them!
This afternoon we have had so much fun during our learning mission provision session! The children have been sketching suffragette medals and our hero from history Emily Davison!

This week we have been learning about the importance of exercise! The children learnt about the effects of exercise on our bodies and then took part in a whole class experiment.

This week we enjoyed our music session with Haley! We were learning about different patterns and pitches of music! We really enjoyed experimenting with sounds in our group.
