Number games for Senior Infants

In Room 5 we are playing lots of number games. We play games that use a die like the Spotty Dog game, the Ladybird game and snakes and ladders. We also play a "more than" card game and a fish bingo game (that uses fish instead of a die). We play these games during Maths Activity time. We learn lots about numbers when we play these games.

Halloween Maths

Today in Room 5 we had a long chat about things we think about when we talk of Halloween. We each had to choose the Halloween thing we like best. We made a chart of our favourite Halloween things, and we talked about which group had the most/least/how many more or less did each group had. Our chart looks great.

In Room 5 we are learning about numbers. We have lots of great number activities. Today we played hopscotch (saying the number as we jumped), dominoes, comparison dominoes-the highest domino each time wins, comparison cards-highest card each time wins, and the tree game. Each group will get a different activity each day.
