Hi,
In maths this week we will be focusing on counting. We will continue our learning on one more and one less through finding missing numbers on a number track. We will be learning to count on from a given number - a very important skill to develop! We will be learning to recognise the size of a set through looking at regular patterns, such as on spotty dice or dominoes, and moving on to irregular patterns. This is called subitizing and is the skill of instantly seeing how many and there are some interesting articles online if you care to google. Here is one link to get you started. http://gse.buffalo.edu/fas/clements/files/Subitizing.pdf We will also be estimating small groups of objects.
You can help your child at home by playing dominoes and dice games.
Rehearsals for the Christmas performance are well under way and in phonics we are continuing to consolidate our blending for reading and segmenting for spelling skills.
See you tomorrow.
