We started using the greater than, less than and equals signs < = > to compare numbers. 

We chose numbers and compared the amounts using the vocabulary, “greater than, less than and equal to”. 

We have been ordering numbers to 20 and looking at the value of numbers.

We have been using number fans to help recognise numbers. 

We have been looking at numbers and seeing how we can make them with different resources to understand the value of numbers. 

We played a game where we scored points for each bean bag we managed to throw into a hoop. We used number tracks to help us work out who scored the most points.

We have started learning about coins and their value. We were looking at the similarities and differences between all the coins. 

We have had fun completing the ‘Pentominoes Challenge’. First, we had to make 12 shapes using 5 squares. When we had created the 12 shapes, we then put them on a grid with no gaps or overlapping shapes.

We used our construction to help us count and spot patterns when counting in 2s. 

We used ten frames to spot patterns when counting in 2s.

We have been learning about decimal place value this week.  We cut up a straw (our "whole")  into tenths to make necklaces.  We then cut up a tenth piece into hundredths to make hundredth bracelets, and a few of us managed to persist with dividing a hundredth into thousandths to make earrings! …

We spotted patterns when counting in 2s on an 100 square.
