Good Morning, Nursery.
Well done for your great number work yesterday.
Today, we are going to compare objects by size.
Here are the characters from the stories that we have been reading for our topic:
Can you say who is the tallest and who is the shortest in each story?
Are there any who are the same height?
What can you say about the one in the middle of each picture?
Can you talk about them using the language ‘taller than’ or ‘shorter than’?
Now, choose some toys where you have three of the same. For example, 3 teddies or 3 dolls.
Can you put them in height order from the shortest to the tallest?
Are there any that are the same height?
What can you say about the one in the middle?
Can you talk about them using the language ‘taller than’ or ‘shorter than’?
I am looking forward to hearing all about your Maths today.
Love from Miss Siswick.
PRINTABLE VERSION:N Maths Thursday
Good morning Everyone.
Leopold manage to use the language taller than and shorter than as well as the same as correctly.
We had fun competing all the characters
Esmeralda loved comparing the characters of the three stories.
She found the three little pigs have the same height, while the others’ stories characters have different sizes between them.
Then she picked up three toys and compared their sizes.
Good morning Nursery,
Alexander correctly identified the sizes of the bears and the goats in the stories, he got a little confused with the pigs though..
He put his toys in height order and was able to correctly use phrases like taller and smaller than with some help. We have uploaded photo.
Daddy bear is the tallest and baby bear is the shortest. Mummy bear is smaller than daddy bear and bigger than baby bear.
The three little pigs are all the same size.
The biggest billy goat is the tallest and the smallest billy goat is the shortest. The middle billy goat is smaller than the biggest billy goat and bigger than the smallest billy goat.
I used mummys ruler to see who was bigger or smaller than each other. The ruler wasn’t big enough to measure me!
Baby bear, the two pigs and the little goat are the shortest .
The two pigs are the same hight.
The oneS in the middle are standing between .
Daddy bear is taller than mummy bear and baby bear is shorter than mummy bear .
Hello,
Grace said Daddy Bear is the tallest in the tallest, she thought the pig in the red jacket was the tallest so I explained all three of them were the same height and that the goat in yellow was the tallest.
She said the middle bear is Mummy Bear and she was taller than Baby Bear but shorter than Daddy Bear. Now knowing they were the same size she said the middle pig was the same as the others and the middle goat was the smallest. She said Eric (the dog) is smaller than she is!
Well done, everyone, for your wonderful Maths this morning. You have all been working very hard and using the language of size.
I am very sorry that I am replying so late this morning as I was phoning people at home. Hopefully, I will get to talk to each of you in the next few days. Love from Miss Siswick.
Hello Nursery
Ania understands and used words as tallest than and shorter than. She answered my questions without any problems. She had a great time.
Hi Miss Siswick,
I did my work with Miss Jones. She drew some pictures and I had to tell her which one was the biggest and which one was the smallest. Hope you are having a nice day.
Hello nursery,
Fiadh used a crayola pencil, crayon and marker. She used taller than and shorter correctly to decribe them.
Dear Miss Siswick,
Nicolas finished the homework above. He had no problems using the tallest, smallest, same height language.
Greetings from us ?
Well done; Ania, Indigo, Fiadh and Nicolas. You can order the characters and objects by size and talk about them.
Great ordering by size everyone. Super pictures too. X
