In maths, we have been practising counting in steps of 2, 3, 5 and 10. Today, we made spiral number snakes. We decorated the snakes, wrote out our chosen number pattern, cut them out and practised reading the snake’s number pattern out loud, forwards and backwards. A fun morning! Take a look at our pictures below.
