Yr 3.1 students learning how to add three numbers. First, they participated in investigations where they made different amounts with cubes, straws and caps. Then, the students drew shapes as pictorial representations of three different amounts and counted the total. Finally, they moved on to numerical representations of addition sums by means of a game with playing cards.

The children used caps in 3 different colours to work out additions with 3 numbers. They had to create sums with the first two numbers adding up to 10 and topping up with the next colour.

Afterwards they created their own sums with caps and formulated the sum on their mini whiteboards.
