Learning Observed
In Maths, we have been learning about number patterns and using skip counting to help us. We have been learning to skip counting in 5s to help us solve our five timetables. Our hapu have been learning that 4x5 is the same as 4 groups of 5 and what that looks like visually. Kiko shows curiosity during discussions by listening carefully to others when they share their ideas. She is able to work collaboratively with others to help further her understanding and prefers peer buddy discussions. Kiko is beginning to show her capability by skip counting in fives to help her solve five timetable problems.
