Marvellous Maths in Reception 

This week in Reception, the children built on prior knowledge on making patterns. We introduced more complex patterns and focused on noticing items repeating more than once. The children were encouraged to say the pattern out loud and make patterns around the edge of shapes as well as in straight lines. The children then used this knowledge to create their Easter bonnets ready for the Easter parade! The children carefully throught about their Easter patterns and decorated their bonnets.

Activities: 

Brodie: " Orange, Yellow..." 

Vanessa: " I copied the pattern" 

Levi: " Yellow, orange, orange..." 

Ashton: " There are two purple cubes then one yellow cube" 

Key Vocabulary: 

Patterns, repeat, same, different
