In their Mathematics lessons, the Kindergarten students have been thinking logically and creatively, as they recognise, continue and create repeating patterns, using hands-on materials such as counters, teddies, cubes and other objects. They have then described their creations by identifying the \u2018core\u2019 of their repeating pattern as an AB (two part) or ABB, AAB, ABC (three part) pattern. The students had great fun using sounds and actions to copy and continue patterns in both their Mathematics and Music lessons! To extend their thinking, the students were challenged to create circular patterns and to continue and extend patterns by filling in the missing element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students have also been developing their understanding of length as an attribute and have enjoyed using playdough and informal units such as cubes and pop sticks, to measure and compare the lengths of various objects. They have learnt that when comparing and ordering objects according to length, the objects must be aligned end to end. The students have used the mathematical vocabulary of long\/short, longest\/shortest and longer than\/shorter than, when representing and comparing lengths of different classroom objects. It is wonderful to witness our Kindergarten students thinking like Mathematicians every day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
