Happy Friday, everybody! We are now fully in the swing of our new project "At The Seaside" where we have been learning about rockpools and the different features of the seashore. We are looking forward to finding out even more as this term progresses!
Maths Homework
This week, we would like you to look at pages 48 & 49.
For Year 1's this focuses on volume. Many of the practical activities discussed around length and mass in previous blogs hold true here - look at the volume of different bottles and cans around the house to compare and order them or use an egg cup to see how many cups it takes to fill different containers. Below is a game that builds upon this idea:
For Year 2's this focuses on comparing measurements. This gives another opportunity to using greater than (>), less than (<) and equals (=) signs to compare amounts, ordering values and linking units of measure to length, mass and capacity. Below is a game to help read amounts on a labelled scale - start off with the simple challenges and build up to scales where not all the numbers are labelled:
If you have any issues or questions, please, please come and see us at the end of the day - we would love to see you!
Have a lovely weekend!
Best wishes
Mr Jude, Mrs Yuille & Miss Smith
