In Maths, Year 2 have been learning how to add and subtract 1s. First, they worked in groups to add and subtract 3 1-digit numbers and represent this in different pictorial representations. Afterwards, in pairs, they played roll the dice, where they had to find the total of their 3 numbers.
Once we had practised how to add and subtract 1s practically, the children completed some challenging number sentences in their books. We used counters to help us count. Some children were even doing sums like this: 34 + 5 + 3 = and this; 57 + 5 – ___ = 59.
