Measuring and Weighing

In Maths this week we have been measuring and weighing different items.  We used rulers to look at how many centimetres objects were and used words such as 'longer', 'shorter' and 'the same as' to compare lengths.

We also looked at how heavy objects were.  We used words such as 'heavier' and 'lighter' to compare the objects we weighed on our scales.

Maths - Time and Money

This week in Maths we have been learning about Time and Money.  We started the week by reminding ourselves of the different coins and their values.  Then we had a role play shop and had to sort out the correct amount of money to buy different items.

At the end of the week we learned about time.  We used the clocks to make times to the hour and half hour and then solved some simple word problems to work out the length of time different activities took.

Map work

In our Topic work we have been learning about the seaside.  Today we used an atlas to look up different seaside destinations within the UK.  We spotted that beaches are always next to the sea on the coast.  We were able to name some popular UK holiday destinations and could label them on our own maps.

Maths

Over the last two weeks we have been working very hard in our Maths lessons to represent our number sentences in different ways.  Last week we focused on solving two-step problems.  We then recorded these using tens frames, as bar models and as 'alien heads'.  This week we have been looking at the mathematical symbols  and we have been moving our sentences around so that they symbols come in different places.
