Yuvika has settled seamlessly into our learning habitat. She has been working on upskilling her mathematical knowledge. This has involved playing a range of games with others in her maths group. In this photo, Yuvika is using a range of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division strategies to reach a range of target numbers. She enjoys playing against her friends and enjoys it even more when she beats them! Yuvika has a good grasp of doubling and halving which she used to good effect in this game. She is more confident adding numbers together and is growing in confidence when using a variety of the other three operations.
