Problem solvers!

Today we had to think hard, explain our thinking and listen to others while we were being problem solvers and answering a tricky maths question:
There were 6 sheep (hipi in Te Reo) and two paddocks. The sheep/hipi had escaped and the farmer needed to put the sheep/hipi back into their paddocks. He needed to make sure there were the same amount of sheep/hipi in each paddock. How many sheep/hipi will be in each paddock?
There were some different answers so we all worked together to see if we could figure it out. We made a farm and used the animals to help us.

Look at our super problem solvers working the problem out. Ka pai Room 2!

How many sheep would there be in each paddock?

Casey's new puppy

In the holidays Casey and her family got a new puppy.
It is a chocolate Labrador and her name is Sophie. 
Casey's Mum brought Sophie in for a visit.
We asked lots of questions about how to look after a pet. We know that they need food, a warm bed, some toys to play with and lots of love.
Sophie loved our shoes and our bags!

We are learning to identify numbers

We love playing the fly swat game to help us identify numbers.
 We are put in two different teams and Miss Brown calls out a number. It is a race to swat the number first.
We are getting really good at quickly finding numbers. Some of us can identify numbers up to 100!
