100 numbers for Maths

 Today for Maths, we had a task - TO FIND 100 NUMBERS. 

We had to work in groups and we were given 2 minutes to find the numbers. We had to find the numbers in order (1,2,3,4..) and we had to take turns. 

 

The first time we did it, we didn't find many numbers. The second time we did it, each group got better. After this second time, Kymani found a paterrn - have a look at the pictures below. Can you see the pattern? We then got to do it a third time - and we were even better than the 2nd time.

From this activity we talked about what made us successful.

We all decided that we were successful because we 

- Worked together as a team. This meant that we were taking turns and listening to each other.

- Helped each other out. When it was 1 persons turn, we were all looking for the number to help them.

- Stayed focussed. We were doing the work that we had to do. No one was playing around or mucking about, we all were focussed on the learning. 

- Were patient with each other.

- Listened to each other. 

We will continue to work on these things during our learning time so that we successful!
