Week 3 - Maths 1 & 2

Wow - the lessons go so smoothly when I am prepared and know what I'm doing and have the jellytots on hand.

Today's 2 lessons went very well. Jonty was on form, we got the work done and he understood most of it quickly and easily.

We worked on factors adding up to 6 and 7. Went well.

We did story sums (subtraction) and he was quick to pick up what was being asked, write it out in the correct way and answer it correctly too.

We played subtraction board games which he liked .. mainly because he won - ha ha. Seriously, it is a fun way to do arithmetic - using the numbers on the 2 dice, he had to work out "the difference" so it helped cement that concept as well as his mental subtraction skills. He likes games. He likes winning. He likes jellytots.

So - on form, on target, on track. Yippee.
