NUMERACY

In term three, we have been extending our understandings of Number, focusing on counting and place value. We have also introduced the concept of multiplication and division. We have used lots of materials such as counters, paddle pop sticks and teddies to make equal groups and develop an understanding of the concepts of multiplication and division.

As part of our unit on multiplication, we created an array city, where the windows of our buildings became an array that we could create number sentences for. We also explored our school grounds and discovered that arrays are everywhere.
