Number Bonds!

We have had soooo much fun practising our number bonds! We need to be able to recall all our number bonds up to 20 (that means number bonds to 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 etc) but we also need to know our number bonds to 50, 100 and 1000 - PHEW!

We have talked about how this takes a LOT of practise. We know we are doing this for homework every Monday night but we also need to practise in class.

Miguel Nunes from 4LB came up with a great idea for helping us work even quicker. He suggested we all use a stopwatch with our maths partners and time how quickly we could recall our number bonds. Everybody had great fun and worked quicker and quicker and quicker! What a great idea Miguel!

Keep on working with this fantastic enthusiasm Year 4 and let's see if we can keep practising those number bonds to beat our times next week!
