Nina Marni everyone and welcome to our weekly blog.
Our Learning Intention one is to support each child to deepen their understanding of measurement. Encouraging children to use comparative language such as big, medium, and small, as well as the terms bigger and smaller.
Why: Children become numerate as they develop the understanding, knowledge, and skills to use mathematics confidently across learning areas and in their lives.They develop conceptual understandings, procedural fluency, and adaptive reasoning skills to facilitate transfer of their mathematical knowledge to contexts outside the mathematics classroom and this is supported when the mathematical ideas with which they interact are relevant and meaningful.Children are showing interest in sorting, measurements, comparing sizes (taller or shorter, bigger, or smaller) and shapes.To support children’s understanding measuring, estimating, sorting, noticing patterns. Children construct mathematical ideas from birth through a combination of cognitive .
ILP’s : All Children .
Children observed different objects with different sizes, they were engaged in comparing length. They learned to use the terms bigger, big, smaller and were able to organise the objects accordingly with the help of their teacher.
Children used a balancing scales with a ‘bowl’ on each side to weigh, compare lighter and heavier objects. They observed that the bigger objects were not always heavier.

Can you find and make a big, small and bigger tower?
Literacy Intentions (our hopes for their learning)
- Children will develop a joyful connection to picture books.
- Children will gain confidence in using mark-making tools, such as crayons, textas, pencils, paint, chalk, sand (as they create texts during this process).
- Children will build symbolic functioning, sharing something about the marks they have created.
