This week we have been focusing on Skip Counting in 5’s. We love to count likt this – ” 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100.”
We like ot sing and exercise along to this YouTube song.
Next we split into 3 groups with our teachers and used set materials to make the sets of 5, up to 100.
We counted by skip counting, then we checked by counting to 100 by 1’s. We had to make sure our sets were accurately counted and that they were put into rows or groups to make them easy to count.
Mrs de Koning took her group outside –
They used ice block stickes to make the stripes on a snake, and then made a tall ladder too. We drew the outlines in chalk.
