# Fantastic numbers

   25 February 2016   [Reception](https://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/reception-1)

In maths this week Foundation have been learning all about numbers and how to count. We have also been learning how to find one more and one less.  We were counting out sweets in a bag and matching them to the correct numeral and we also worked out one more and one less.

The cheeky witch had also messed up all of our number cards so the children worked hard to put the number back in order.

Pentagon group also had a tricky problem to solve the nasty witch had cut up all the number square so they had to put it back together. They were fantastic at solving this problem and could read all the numbers to 100. Well done Pentagons.
