This week in Year 1, we’ve been busy learning about 1 more and 1 less. Using ten frames and colourful maths cubes, the children explored adding or taking away 1 from different numbers. They enjoyed using the cubes to build numbers and then adding or removing cubes to see how the number changes.
Well done, Year 1 – you’re becoming fantastic mathematicians! Keep practising your 1 more and 1 less at home!
Help at Home
To support our maths learning, challenge your children with 1 more and 1 less questions at home. Try asking:
- “What is one more than 5?”
- “What is one less than 10?”
These simple questions will help build their confidence and understanding. Keep it fun and encourage them to explain their thinking!
