Year 1 - The Language of Mathematics

In Year 1 we have been working on extending our Mathematical language.  It's hard to EXPLAIN our Mathematical thinking in English as it needs us to use more academic language.  Here we are giving it a try.

Lyan and Bahadir are working together to match number patterns

Marko loves numbers and did the puzzle all by himself!

Xinyang explains her number patterns

Luis is working on 'teen' numbers 

Simone uses great English to explain

Fabijan works hard at his 'teen' numbers

Xuanyin explains that she doesn't need to count these numbers, 

she knows them in her head!

Matej is starting to recognise numbers can be '5 and some more'

Wow!  Talking about Mathematics is a great way to develop language.
