Domino Addition

We all solved addition problems using the dominoes.

It helps with counting, number formation and adding two groups together.

Once we are good at this we will move on to dice addition where we roll the dice, write the number then roll the dice again and add the two numbers together. 

Fun with numbers, shapes and counting

We love doing Maths in Room 9!

Look at all of these numbers - Numbers, numbers everywhere!

 Patterns and shapes fill the room too!

Fractions

We have been learning about fractions

whole, half and quarter

To finish off, Room 9a made pizza and we cut the whole pizza into two equal parts = half

Mrs Harding also cut the pizza into four equal parts - quarters.

 Sophie enjoyed tasting her quarter of a pizza!

What a fun way to learn about fractions.

Maths Art with Mrs Madden

It is Maths week this week and Mrs Madden came to Room 9a to create some artwork through Maths

 We cut shapes, used sticky shapes and used sticky numbers to create our artwork.

Look at some of our shape pictures and number faces. 

Aren't they awesome. 

Room 9 are going to be seeing Mrs Madden tomorrow - how exciting!!!

Te Reo

We have been learning to count to 10 in Te Reo.

We sing a song to help us learn to count.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5

6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

We have also been learning how to say the colours in Te Reo.

Singing helps us to remember the colours too. 

Come in and have a go yourself.

Maths with Gnomeo

Today we had a visitor to Room 9, it was a garden gnome called Gnomeo!

Gnomeo helped us to learn how to play a new maths game called Ice-Cream Number Match.

We had tpo count the spots on the ice-cream and match it to the number on the ice cream cone.

We ordered the numbers 1-10.

Gnomeo also taught us a new Maths game where we had to match the top and the bottom of ice-blocks.

The top of the ice block has the number and a dice showing the same amount of spots. 

On the bottom of the ice blocks, there is a tens frame showing the number of spots and a tally chart showing the number too. Once we had matched them, we put them in order 1-10 and we counted forwards and backwards.

Maths is fun. Thank you Gnomeo for helping us learn how to count to 10.
