Spotlight on Numeracy
Each fortnight a different grade will be in the SPOTLIGHT sharing numeracy inside the classrooms!
Welcome to Numeracy in Year 3
Year 3 have been learning about addition and subtraction and length over the past fortnight. Find some photos and quotes below from students about their Mathematics!
“We have been learning to use the jump and split strategy by adding and subtracting numbers to find the answers to the number sentences and problems. I feel confident using the split strategy because I find it easier to find the answers.’ - Alvin 3W
‘We had to measure our body parts using string and a measuring tape. We recorded the measurements in our books using centimeters. It was interesting to see the different lengths of our body parts’ - Roman 3W
“We have been learning about the jump strategy using number lines for addition and subtraction. We have also been having fun measuring length and learning about centimetres, millimetres and metres. My favourite part was using number lines to help me with subtraction.” - Lexi 3G
If you can’t measure it, you can’t improve it!
