In Maths, Year 1 were introduced to the concept of parts and a whole.

Children were given six bean bags to throw into a hoop. Children then had to count how many bean bags landed inside of the hoop and how many landed outside of the hoop; these represented the parts. Children then counted how many bean bags they had altogether and this number was the whole.

This learning will feed into work on Monday around part-whole models. The children loved this practical lesson and grasped the concept so well!
