  • Position is established by places in the classroom, using a floor map of the room.
  • A graph is designed to be completed by collecting information.
  • Addition and subtraction are extended to +4, -4, +5, -5, +6, -6, +7, -7.
  • Bonds of 10 and 11 are discovered.
  • Directions are given to draw and colour a shape.
  • Measuring with thumbs and comparison of these measurements using the related vocabulary.
