Each day Mrs Filipo sets small groups maths task. They have to go outside to complete these.

Today the squares maths group worked in small groups on the following tasks:

• Show 5x5 on materials
• Find 2D and 3D shapes around the school, take a photo and label them.
• Find objects and sort the from shortest to tallest and then tallest to shortest.

Can you match the above pictures with the tasks?

Today Andy came in and put on an amazing performance for us.

Look at the pictures and talk about the performance with your family and friends. Talk about your favourite parts and explain why you liked it so much.
