Column Addition
Class Two have been working extremely hard in maths this week. We have been learning to add 2 digit numbers using the column addition method. This is a new concept that we have begun to master and the whole class have shown perseverance and determination.
The children have blown us away with their teamwork skills, using Cuisenaire rods to represent 2 digit numbers as 10s and 1s. We have overheard conversations between the children using fantastic reasoning skills, explaining that first you must add the numbers in the ‘Ones’ column and then add the numbers in the ‘Tens’ column in order to find the total.
Well done to all of our Class Two mathematicians!
