In Autahi we have been exploring number as part of our maths program. We explore numerals, dot patterns and tens frames. These help us to think of numbers in lots of different ways.
We can see numbers on tens frames and put them in the right order.
We can count numbers on the hundreds square.
We can match the numerals on the pegs to the number of stars on the card.
We play games like mouse count where a sneaky snake comes and gobbles up the mice. We are practising taking away numbers and checking to see how many are left.
We work together with a buddy to share our ideas and check each others thinking.
These are just a few of the ways we engage with numbers in Autahi. There are so many fun things we can do all the time that keep us thinking about numbers.
