We have loved being up an active in our counting! Practicing ordinal counting each day has really helped us in becoming familiar with the flow, sound and sequence of numbers. As we continue counting forwards and backwards with 100, we have been using Gattegno charts to help us match the number names to the correct digits. We have been practicing linking the number name with the digits that represent them. We have grown in confidence and can mostly point to the digits that form the number name, our next target is to be able to write these numbers correctly. For example, if I tap fifty and five my number is 55 not 505. We spent time practicing counting in multiples of ten and discussing how numbers are made up of tens and ones.

In our maths learning, the children have been focussing upon place value knowledge, reading and writing numbers, identifying the value of digits, comparing and ordering numbers, and counting in powers of 10.
We focussed on our place value knowledge, reading and writing numbers, identifying the value of digits, comparing and ordering numbers, and counting in powers of 10. We also started our three week times table challenge and have shown great improvement already.

Using one hundred squares we have become familiar in counting forwards and backwards from any number between 1 and 100. Each time we practice counting with an ordinal purpose we become more confident in recognising number position. As well as practicing our ordinal counting skills we have been counting for a cardinal purpose. We really enjoyed discovering how many of somethings are in the tray and writing the digits to represent that number. |
