Trying new things in Math

 In Maths our strand focus is Geometry. We were very inspired by Aroha 2 learning outdoors. So we went outside and looked at the spiderweb:
Things we were looking for:
- How many shapes did we estimate we would see?
- How many shapes did we count?
- What shapes can we see?

We loved going outdoors to do math and see how shapes can be found in different places.








We also tried having four stations in maths
1- Drawing shapes (geometry) and Number writing
2- Sticks (creating shapes)
3- Cubes (patterns)
4- Foam Shapes

It was a huge thumbs up from us! We loved having the choice to choose where we went and the freedom to change when we wanted to. 










Lastly we had a spontaneous visit from Mr Vasau and we were very excited! Thanks Mr Vasau for popping in!
