NUMERACY SUPPORT with MRS TEWS

This year at St Bernardine's we are providing Numeracy Support to students in Years 1 to 6. Below is an outline of what is being explored in my Numeracy Support workshops this term.  





WELCOME TO





YEAR 2

THIS WEEK WE FOCUSED ON:

Number Facts Quiz
- identifying the number that comes before (-1) and after (+1) any number between 1 and 1000;
- doubles (1+1, 2+2, 3+3, ...);
- the rainbow facts (the addition facts that add to 10, eg. 1+9, 2+8);
- adding 10 to any number (0 to 1000);
- subtracting 10 from any number (10 to 1000); and 
- adding 9 to any number (0 to 1000).

Those students who are confidently answering number facts of the type listed above are also working on some or all of the following number facts:
- near doubles (1+2, 2+3, 3+4, ...); 
- adding multiples of 10 to any number (0 to 1000) and ;
- subtracting multiples of 10 from any number (20 to 1000).

Workshop

We practised subtraction word problems. The children identified the word or words that told them they had to subtract the numbers. They also had to determine which were the important numbers to use and to always use the largest number first.

Workshop
THIS WEEK WE:
- practised subtracting with double-digit numbers where regrouping/trading/borrowing was required (eg. 34-18). 
- solved some subtraction word problems in which they had to decide if they needed to trade/regroup.

Workshop
THIS WEEK WE:
-pratised  place value (millions, hundred thousands, ten thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, ones, tenths, hundredths), focusing especially on the difference between PLACE (the position of a digit within a number) and VALUE (how much a particular digit is worth); and
- applied this knowledge to make mystery numbers where the students had to put the correct digit in the correct place.

Workshop
THIS WEEK WE:
5 NAVY
- explored rotation, translation and reflection.

Rotation is where an object is rotated around a single point (turn).
Translation is were an object is moved (slide).
Reflection is the mirror image of an object (flip).
     
5 MAROON
-  continued to explore division with and without remainders.
 
eg 46 ÷ 3

First step is to ask how many 3s in 4. The answer is 1, so we put 1 above the 4

Second step we say 1 x 3 =3

Third step we ask, how many more make 4. 3 plus 1 more make 4 so we put the one in front of the 5 and this number is now 16.

We repeat these steps.

  1.      How many 3s in 16? The answer is 5.
  2.      5 x 3 = 15
  3.      How many more make 16. The answer is 1, therefore the                  remainder    is 1

The answer is 15 r 1


5 GREEN
-  explored enlarging objects by a scale factor of 2 or 3, i.e. drawing to scale an object 2 times or 3 times larger.
