Maths in Action

We are off to a fabulous start in Room 1.

Students are learning to follow our new class routines and systems and are being afforded opportunities to practice new learning through our dynamic classroom programs.

In mathematics we rotate through a range of activities such as:

1. Working with the classroom teacher on specific learning goals
2. Using the computers and Ipads to reinforce our learning
3. Using concrete materials to explore maths concepts
4. Being responsible class members by working cooperatively together.

Term 1 will see our students focus on the development of their number knowledge, strategies they can use to make adding and subtracting numbers easier, recalling their basic facts, as well as strengthening their understanding of shape, size and time.

Here are two of our students Tahma and Koheriki independently using some of our classroom resources to create patterns and shapes.



GREAT INDEPENDENT LEARNING TEAM :-)
