Team CW this week

Rainbows have been creating a deeper understanding of early numbers and counting this week in maths, with the help of the Number Blocks.

Their objects have been;
To know that 2 is made of 1 and 'another 1'
To make their own collections of 2 objects and identify the '1 and another 1' within them.
To identify when a collection is composed of 3 objects
To produce their own collection of 3.
To identify when a collection is composed of 3 or NOT 3
To see that 4 can be made with four 1s.

They have been explaining how they know there are three objects in a group because they can see three is made of two and one more. They know that they can count larger objects, and objects that are not the same and that they can still be counted together to find a total.
