Learning and Teaching
Maths
In Maths the children are learning about numbers. The children have been practising how to read, write and make numbers. Here are some ideas you can do with your children at home to help them with counting.
Counting numbers to 10 (and eventually to 20 and more) is important mathematics learning. This helps children to use the number words to describe and think about quantities.
Look for numbers and notice people using numbers counting when you are:
• Dressing for the day or dressing for bed.
• Going shopping.
• Reading a story.
• Driving in the car.
• Walking down the street,
• Catching a train.
• Moving between rooms in the house.
• Visiting family and friends.
• Playing in the park.

Hi families, over the past two weeks our children have engaged in Digital Safety and Wellbeing sessions run by Inform & Empower. Children in Years 1-6 joined a live session run by Marty McGauran where they learnt about being safe online. We have attached some resources stating what children learnt, along with conversation starters for home.
