Playful & Practical Maths
20th Apr 2026
Junior Infants are learning to partition numbers using cubes, whiteboards, and pencils, building a strong understanding of how numbers can be broken apart and recombined. They are exploring different strategies to make the same sum in a variety of ways, developing flexibility in their thinking and deepening their confidence in solving problems independently and collaboratively.
Senior Infants are exploring weight and balance, using hands-on activities to compare objects and describe them as heavier, lighter, or the same weight as each other. They are investigating and finding items that are heavier, lighter, or the same weight, developing their understanding through observation, discussion, and practical exploration.
