Maths Over the past couple of weeks, Team JF have worked INCREDIBLY hard to master addition of two digit numbers. This week, we started exploring addition when crossing the boundary. We begun by discussing everything we already knew about this operation (which was a lot). From this, we continued to use base 10 to make our numbers and position them correctly on the place value chart. As this is a skill we are already familiar with, we mastered the positions in no time! As our learning advanced, we moved into counting our ones and quickly realising that we didn’t have enough room for all of those! We knew already the tens belonged in their own column so we gave them over to our neighbour. After lots of opportunities to practice this, we became more confident in talking through each step to be successful. This is a tricky skill to master but the children have made me one very proud teacher, well done! ICT This week in Team JF, we learnt about sorting shapes using different criteria. We talked as a class about the different ways we can sort shapes, and did this together on the smart board. Some of us said that we could use colour, number of sides, and shape type in order to sort the shapes. As well as this we also discussed that we could use ‘less than’ and ‘more than’ sentences to create our criteria to sort the shapes (for example, less than 2 sides, more than 2 sides). We then worked with a partner to sort a number of shapes into different categories, before discussing our findings as a class.
