Learning goals
- We are learning to solve problems involving modelling addition, subtraction, equal sharing and grouping, using different strategies.
- We are learning to identify one half as two equal parts of a whole.
- We are learning to read, write, model and represent numbers to 100 in different ways and on number lines.
- We are learning to divide a set of objects into equal sized groups to solve simple problems.
- We are learning to use concrete materials or subitising to represent everyday situations that involve equal sharing and grouping.
