Dear
Mead Room families and friends,
It’s
all about Numeracy!
This week we began to use a graph to collect, represent and then analyse
our eye colour data.
We used the information in the graph to answer questions such as: “Which
group has less? Which group has more? Blue eyes, Brown eyes and Green
eyes. The children were excited to share
their data and add it to the graph, comparisons were drawn between the groups
and expressed using the language of mathematics!
Liliana – I think Blue eyes
has the most
Cooper – The Blue eyes has
more than Brown
We will collate our information over the next few days and display it in
the Mead Room.
We
have been using natural materials to connect number names and numerals to the
quantities they represent.
Zed – That’s my number (3)
William R – I can count bigger than 10!
Haris – 1,2,3,4,5,6,7…..and
8 of course!
The
Mead Room has bounced back from our storm surge last week! Thank you for your
understanding whilst we navigated a slightly modified program – it illustrates
just how resilient your children are.
Thank goodness we had the boat in our room………
Enjoy
your weekend!
From
Melissa, Elodie and Rosalie
