This half term, we are working on our knowledge of place value. Today, the children were sorting objects into groups. They could choose to sort the objects by colour, shape or size.

Today, the children have been exploring and building their own arrays. They used a range of concrete apparatus to create the rows and columns that make up an array. This practical maths will help to deepen our understanding of arrays before we move onto pictorial representations tomorrow.
