Mathematics

 

The students are becoming very good with subitizing the number on a ten frame. Next week the SK's will be challenged to find to ten frame cards in order to make a specific number. For example, if the student was given the number 8 they could find a card with 4 and another card with 4 on it, or 5 on one and another one with 3. This will be a great introduction to addition which we will be working on after Easter.

 

The JK's will be given a number and asked to show that many counting various items. Young children require lots of practise with counting objects in order to ensure they tag and count each object correctly. They will be encouraged to identify the numbers from one to 10 in random order, count that many objects and then find the ten frame that shows that number.
