Maths is Awesome

In Room 1 Maths is a favourite.  We are encouraged to "take the lid off" and try to go beyond.  This means attempting rich tasks that seem impossible, but with lots of encouragement, talking and doing, we manage to succeed.

We loved learning about Place Value and Odd and Even Numbers.  We are very proud of our Place Value Street and our Odd and Even Creatures.

Here an example of a rich task involving adding digits.  We really got good at recognising the patterns in the numbers.
