Good Morning, Nursery.
Earlier in the week and last week, we were practicing counting.
Today, we are going to practice counting in a different way.
Look at this recipe. How many spoonfuls of each ingredient do you need?
Can you get one spoon and measure out that many spoonfuls ?
It doesn’t need to be those ingredients unless you want to do the baking activity. Can your child measure eg dry rice or sugar in spoonfuls and remember to stop at the right number eg 4 spoonfuls?
If you would like to use the recipe to bake the biscuits, the instructions are here.
I am looking forward to hearing all about your Maths today.
Love from Miss Siswick.
PRINTABLE VERSION:N Maths Fri
Nicolas counted the number of spoons correctly as shown in the picture above. He got really excited when I told him that he is allowed to measure the number of spoons with sugar and flour. He stopped at the correct number and enjoyed that exercise.
Greetings from Nicolas
Grace enjoyed counting the flour, sugar and rice. She wanted to carry on with the rice though 🙂
Happy Friday nursery! enjoy your maths!
Hello,
Adelaide counted the spoons, then took all the spoons out of the drawer and put 8, 5 and 4 on the table. Then I asked her to get as many spoonful of rice as on the picture . She started but first forgot to count. But then did it very well! She said she will bake a cake later!
Hello Miss Siswick ,
Caspian counted all the spoons and enjoyed counting his spoons using sugar, rice and lentil.
Caspian enjoy very much counting ingredients when he is baking cake with his mum.
Esmeralda counted 4 spoonfuls of dry rise and Argentine tea.
She was already familiar with counting spoonfuls because she loves helping her mummy bake cookies and cakes.
She feels like baking a cake this afternoon.
Well done; Nicolas, Grace, Adelaide, Caspian and Esme. I am glad that you all had a go with counting out the spoonfuls.
You can keep on counting, if you are enjoying it.
How many spoonfuls of each type of food do you have all together? Make sure that you don’t mix them up though or you will have to eat sugary rice for tea!
Maths went so much better than Phonics. James got all right and he measured out the rice correctly. Sending photos
Well done, James.
