Over the last two weeks we have been learning about the number 1000. We have been developing an understanding of the quantity of 1000 and also developing an understanding of the relationship between 1000, 100 and 10. At the beginning of the period Mrs Millett told us that we were going to have to collect 1000 items.
We talked about so
me ideas for our collections and decided upon the following collections:
Stickers- Ben and Kieren, Nadia and Prinisha, Sunghyun and Sam
Ice block sticks- Rebecca and Daniel, Amber and Pyper, Keita and James
Finger prints- Vasti and Gauri, Jude and Joshua, Stani and Estelle
Stones- Jack and Gareth
Split peas- Liri and Jessie
Toothpicks- Jade and Sherise
Counters- Monique and Natasha
Bottle caps- Logan and Adam.
After several busy days of collecting we were ready to present our collections and all of our learning. Today we shared our collections with the class and also completed a "Define Map" where we defined 1000 in all the ways we had used to collect the magic total. Here are some of our presentations:
