Week 5

This week, the children have been exploring how numbers can be composed of 1s and, from this, begin to investigate the composition of 3 and 4. This will help them see other numbers and amounts within bigger numbers. e.g. seeing that 3 can be composed of 1 and 2. The children will learn from practical experience that a ‘whole’ is made up of smaller parts and is, therefore, bigger than its parts.
