Maths

=__Mathematics:__=

Last term we had great fun with fractions of shapes 1/2, 1/4, 1/3. Later in the term we focused on algebra (Patterns).

Room 10 is continually working with numbers, basic facts, addition and subtraction which will be concentrated on in Term 4 along with the measurement strand of the mathematics curriculum (Time, lenght, money, volume, mass, area).
