In maths we have been focusing on making numbers up to 1000. We have made and partitioned numbers using arrow cards and we played 3 digit races where we had to run to hoops labelled HUNDREDS, TENS and ONES to make a number.  We are becoming experts in knowing what each digit is…

We are looking at the number 100 and what it looks like using real objects... We used objects around the classroom to make a 100 in different ways. We stacked and grouped our objects to make them easier to count. We have shown in many different ways that ten lots of ten make 100!

We had a great time drawing our names in the style of graffiti art today! We learnt to use bright colours and bold lines. We hope you like our work as much as we do!

This afternoon, we were trying to work out how the pneumatics worked in a moving toy that Mr Manning showed us.

This morning, we walked around Dorrington Wood so that we could compare it to the rainforests we will be learning about this half term. 
 

We looked around for things we didn’t think we’d see in a rainforest.

This afternoon, we went out into the playground to do some composing.

We were finding fractions of amounts out on the playground this week.
