Area of mathematics
Crown making
Building blocks
Stencil Drawing
Spaghetti
They were saying they want numbers, and then finding that number from the pile - matching.
They created patterns with their shapes.
Using yoghurt pots to measure capacity and density
We were using terms like more than and less than.
Language of full, measuring
Uniform counting - each time it was the same measurement of spaghetti
Writing the numbers in order of smallest to biggest
Aiming to cut the shapes out into the same size.
Repeating patterns - algebra
Uniform non-standard measure
Using different types of 3D shapes
We had to measure the size of our head, then make it bigger and smaller according to whether it fit our head or not.
Longer and shorter - measuring the length of the string
Cutting out shapes of a similar size, triangles and circles.
Bigger and smaller
Bigger blocks at the bottom, smaller blocks at the top - balancing
Playing with mass and weight - ensuring balance
Made a shape window - playing with size, pattern, height
Letters and numbers
Height - 'you're taller than me'
Cubes, cuboids, pyramids, prisms, curved surfaces
Symmetry
Sides, edges, vertices, surface area
2D shapes
