This week in Maths Year 2 have been recapping many different strategies for addition. We worked together to choose different items from our 'class shop' and add them together using different strategies and resources to support us.
We have gained even more confidence when adding addends together and we have enjoyed working together with our shoulder partners and groups.

This week in Maths , we have been learning about position and directions. We learnt ways to remember our right from our left, such as the left hand makes an L. We defined what position , direction and movement means as well learning about clockwise and anti-clockwise. In pairs , we then gave each other instructions on what directions to turn to get to a specific spot. We finished off by playing a game using our new vocabulary ; clockwise , anti-clock wise , rotation , quarter turn, 3/4 turn and half turns.
