MATHS: This week we will be reviewing the following aspects related to skills for counting :

• subitise numbers to 5 and make equivalent amounts with their rekenreks
• count out 6 or 8 objects from a larger group and check by counting 1-to-1
• arrange 6 or 8 objects into groups that can be subitised.
• recognise and show numbers from 5 to 10 in ‘5 and a bit’ arrangements
• remember to stop when they count to the end of a set of up to 10 jumps/claps/hops.
• count 20 objects and practise saying the tricky ‘teen’ numbers.
• practise counting to 100 and share strategies for counting larger amounts that can’t be moved

• subitise numbers up to 5 using linear dot patterns
• use ‘one finger, one push’ to move a number of beads on the top row ALL AT ONCE to the far left of the rekenrek.
• subitise numbers up to 5 using standard and non-standard dot patterns
• use ‘one finger, one push’ to subitise and explore ‘1 more’ patterns of beads on the rekenrek.
