Spring - Number of the Week
Throughout this term, the children will be learning the numbers 9, 10 and 11! The children will count up to, beyond and down from all of these numbers. They will explore making these amounts. They will also learn to solve questions such as one more and one less and practise adding one digit numbers together using a range of resources.
We will continue to sing a different number rhyme each week. Our rhymes this half term include Five buns in a bakers and a range of Shape rhymes.
If you would like to learn some new rhymes or number songs with your child, we highly recommend this BBC website.

Number
9th September
We will be counting and reading numbers 0-20. During Maths sessions, we will be counting different actions e.g. Can you do 6 jumps? Can you stamp your feet 10 times? This will help the children to develop an understanding of amounts.
The Number of the Week is... 2!
