Good morning Reception Class. Here is your learning for today.

Maths -

I am learning to halve a number.

Children to count out an even number of counters up to 20. Using 2 plates, explain that they are going to share the counters equally (they may wish to share between toys). Explain to children that to halve something means to share equally between 2. Have the children halve the counters by saying ‘1 for you, 1 for you’ until all of the counters have been shared out.
