Wednesday

To be able to recognise and read numbers up to 20.

Begin by using Today's Number - Up to 20 to model writing numbers up to 20 in yellow books.

Pick a number up to 20 out of a hat. In pairs, children make the number using ten frames. Model using Ten Frame | Manipulatives | Coolmath4Kids

Show that it is easier to count by filling a ten first then adding on. Model this as an equation on the board. 10 plus 7 ones is the same as 17.

Adaptive Maths

Can you remember the question words?

How was the fire put out? (research and enquiry)
