Maths - Time



We have been learning to:
  • sequence events within a day

  • order the days of the week
  • order the months in a year
  • describe a duration as long or short ­
  • ­name and ­directly compare the duration of two events
  • ­­tell the time to the hour and half hour using analogue clocks
Before we talked about clock features, we all drew clocks using our prior knowledge.


Amelia your next learning step is to tell the time to the hour and half hour using analogue and digital clocks.

Science





Amelia, you participated well in all the learning about the sun and how it affects everything, including animals and also causes night and day. It will be exciting to see the lanterns with the little lights in them at the Matariki lantern parade!

Art

Amelia, you did a great job at selecting recycled materials and independently constructing your alien/robot named Scoopy.

Maths - strategy


I am able to solve addition problems by holding the biggest number in my head and then counting on, using my fingers to keep track.

My next learning step is to consistently solve subtraction problems by holding the biggest number in my head and then counting back, using my fingers to keep track.
