Sandpaper Drawings



We made some beautiful pictures with chalk today and we wrote some great stories about them.























Sand pit experience.



We read the stories 'Magic Beach' and 'At the Beach'. We went and played in the sandpit to see what it would be like to be at the beach. Look at some of the things we did.









We then wrote some fantastic stories about what we did in the sandpit and created our own beach pictures using chalk and sandpaper.









We have been making ten using a tens frame.


We used different colours to see what numbers made up ten.


Then we recorded our answers on our own tens frame.


We had to use our counting skills for this task.

A mathematical problem !


My Grandmother know that winter is coming.  She wants to knit warm socks for her grandchildren to wear when they play outside on cold days.  She has 5 grandchildren.  How many socks does she have to knit so that her grandchildren will have warm feet this summer?

This is how Christian worked the problem out.  What a great mathematical thinker he is!!
