Kowhai Team Maths - Poly plugs
Maths in Motion We use our number cards to practice ordering numerals. Kowhai team have been using the Poly Plugs (meaning many plugs) to work with numbers. Some children worked in pairs to discover Tens Friends. They wrote equations for Tens Friends. Some children have been working on joining two sets together. We have spent time working with dice patterns to learn the number they represent and ways to record that number. The children are also being taught how to use a calculator to record a given number as well.
Kowhai Team Outside Discovery Time - confident, creative, connected children, communicating and having fun with each other.
