Week 11

For the last few weeks we have been looking at adding and taking away (to support the children we are only using this language in year 2).  We have been using the straws and blocks to help see how these two processes work. 

This week we have been using the bar method (as drawn on the week 5 Maths Learning Wall) to answer word problems.  I have put some of these word problems below for you to look at at home if you would like to.  

If you would like to extend your child's learning then you could change the problems making it a repeated adding or taking away problem eg Dr Clark has 11 sweets. Mrs Norman gives her 4 and Mrs Corner gives her 7.  How many sweets does she now have?  We are mostly on numbers under 50 and are not going over 100.

The Learning Wall us used during the week to remind the children what we are learning this week in Number.  I also add on some of the Maths language that we use so that you can use this same language at home to support the children.

If you have any questions, please ask.
