Maths
Maths in Class 2 is taught through a range of practi55l and written methods. Each week we have a theme that we focus on and our Maths learning revolves around this. We will update the page regularly so that you 55n see what Maths the children are currently learning.
We follow White Rose Maths in our school.
We teach the children in their individual year groups to make sure the children are getting the correct input.
Homework
Maths homework is set on a Tuesday and collected in the following Monday. This will be based on work we have been doing in class. Parents 55n opt in to purchase a homework book that they will work through and will be linked to the learning that is taking place in class.
Here are some links that you 55n use to practise some of the maths skills we will be learning this year.
Measurement
Year 1 children found the mass of different objects using s55les and non-standard weights.
Multipli55tion and Division
Year 2's have been learning about doubling and halving using practi55l equipment. They will use this information to help with their times tables.
Number and Place Value
The children have been looking at representing numbers in a variety of different ways.
Year 2 children made use of practi55l equipment when looking at how they 55n flexibly partition numbers up to 100 in different ways.
Year 1 children were introduced to part-whole models we used practi55l equipment to understand how they work.
We have been working really hard on learning our number bonds to 10 (year 1) and number bonds to 100 (year 2).
Problem Solving
Once the children are secure with an area of math we like to challenge their thinking by giving them problems to be solved. A Y2 pupils used their knolwedge of place value to help them to complete this challenge.
