Hexagons and Squares Maths

WALT: add more than 3 numbers together by first making pairs to 10 Here are Luke and Thinuka demonstrating the strategy they have been learning in class this week. Can you practice this at home? Post a comment with a new equation that you practiced at home and expalain how you solved it... e.g. 16 + 14 + 2 = I took the 4 off the 14 and made 16 into 20. So now I have 20 + 10 + 2 = 12

On Friday Caitlyn's Mum was our Mystery Reader. She bought in Caitlyn's favourite book 'Giraffes Can't Dance' by Giles Andrede and Guy Parker Rees. We loved listening to the story and the illustrations made us laugh! We loved the pictures so much we decided to paint our own. Chack out how amazing they look...
