Year 1 have been looking at numbers within 50 in our math lessons..
We have looked closely at how these numbers are made with tens and ones.
We used our tens rods an ones cubes to make numbers before we told our partners how many tens and ones we had used.
We used lots of STEM sentences when telling our partners what we needed and what we had used to make a number.

I’ve got 2 tens and 8 ones. My number is 28.

I’ve got 3 tens and 3 ones. My number is 33.

I’ve got 1 ten and 8 ones. My number is 18.
We are getting very confident using numbers to 50.
