Room 8's Writing

Writing 26 April
Here is our latest story.  The writing in purple are words or sounds that the children in Room 8 were able to write or hear by themselves.
Mrs Nathan is so proud of how clever they are becoming.

At School 23 April
On Tuesday Tyton used his knowledge of 10 +9 to help him solve this problem.  He was able to see this without moving the counters!
Lorisha reminded him that he needed to take 1 away from 19 since our problem was 9+9.
We also saw that 5+3=8 and 1 more was 9, and that 5+4=9.
We are getting really good at noticing patterns in numbers!

Room 8's Writing Lesson

Room 8 have been working really hard with story writing this term.  We have gotten so clever that we wanted to share a lesson with you.  Mrs Nathan has to write less and less everyday.

This video has been uneditted and is typical of a writing lesson in Room 8 warts and all :) 

 

Maths with Room 8

Each morning we work out how many people are at school.  The boys are the red dots and the girls are the yellow dots.  We always try to make a tidy number by filling up one bus first.  This makes it easier for us to solve.

Today Lorisha was very clever because she knew that 10 + 10 was 20 but we had to help her remember to take one away.
