Today we are using our number bonds to help us add quickly.
Year 2 Maths
This week, we are continuing with our topic of money. We will be looking at making amounts, comparing, finding the total/difference and finding change.
Can you compare amounts of money?
What is the same/different?
Remember the symbols we use to compare amounts
< When one value is smaller than another, we can use a less than sign.
> When one value is bigger than another, we can use a greater than sign.
= When two values are equal, we use the equals sign.
In this lesson, we will map, step and speak the story of the 'The Magic Paintbrush'.
