🐻Sorting by Size 🐻

This week we read the story of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears.’  We counted the different sets of three within the story and sorted the sets by size.  We sorted the sets into groups of large, medium and small.  Some of us also recognised that the sets could be sorted by colour as well! We are really starting to  use our thinking and problem solving skills! 🤩

Investigating the number 1

Our ‘number of the week’ was the number 1.  We listened to a variety of number rhymes and songs to familiarise ourselves with the number.  To consolidate our understanding of the number, we completed activities such as, writing the number on our whiteboards, making the number 1 using Play-dough and painting a picture of 1.  

Celebrating Roald Dahl Day through Numeracy

We celebrated Roald Dahl Day with the story of ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’  Our Numeracy focus for the day was to sort pictures using 1 criteria.  We had to sort the pictures into sweets and not sweets.  We stuck the pictures of sweets inside Willy Wonka’s factory and anything that was not a sweet was placed outside the factory.  Miss Vaughan was very impressed with our problem solving and discussion during this activity.
