During our Maths lessons this week, we have been looking at tens and ones in part whole models.
We have been practically partitioning numbers into tens and ones using a variety of concrete resources.
After this we applied what we had learnt pictorially.
We then started to explore ways to partition 2 digit numbers into different combinations of tens and ones. Next week we will use our part whole models to record addition statements.
Year 2 spent the afternoon exploring primary and Secondary colours. Firstly, we identified the primary colours and looked for items around our classroom. After this, we looked at what primary colours we would need to mix in order to create secondary colours.
Before we began mixing our paints, we practised how to hold our paintbrush correctly.
We then used a colour wheel to paint on the primary colours. Once we achieved this, we then mixed together two primary colours in order to create a secondary colour.
We had lots of fun investigating the colours we could make out of mixing the primary colours together.
