Terrific Tennis

Paparoa Pirates Red Vs Pirates Blue!

Last week they played each other. It was a close game. Reece and Johnny both scored a few times, and Ava got her first try! There may have been others who got tries too, don’t quote me on that. It was a very close game (but they don’t keep score). Traci. Thanks again Traci for the fabulous photos :-)

Discovery Term 4 Week 4

Super Subtraction!

We have been busy taking away, finding the difference between two numbers, counting back from a number and using the 'minus'/ 'take away'/ 'subtract' symbol. We found this cool song and have been watching it on our new TV.

Pirate Subtraction Song


The children have been working hard with subtraction. They have been counting back from the bigger number, covering holes on the Numicon pieces and drawing subtraction stories with flowers, rugby balls, lollipops and all kinds of wonderful things! The children have been using Maths vocabulary such as:  take-away, minus, difference, count back, subtract, symbol, equals, makes, leaves.
