A couple of pointers for homework this week. For maths, you need to be measuring pairs of objects and finding the difference. To do this, measure the larger object, measure he shorter object – then subtract the length of shorter object from the larger object. We have covered column subtraction in class, though you might… Read more »

Adding
Today in class one, we looked at some adding altogether.
Sequences
To start our multiplication work we have been looking at sequences. We used the multi link cubes to make patterns. Then we wrote numbers under our sequences to see if we could predict what the next number would be.

To work this out, we measured Mr Este and subtracted Charley’s height to find the difference. This was 67cm. To check, we used the inverse sum. We found that 1 Charley + 67cm… Read more »
