Learning Observed

Alex has been learning her 2x and 5x tables by using repeated addition. She is dependant on this as she is unable to recall the answer when the times tables are randomly mixed up. Her addition and subtraction are improving. She is still using a number line at times and her fingers, and when put under the pressure of time to work out an answer, seems to get confused about the numbers. We started this term with simple addition and subtraction word problems and she is managing these very well. She is able to pick out the words that help her decide if the equation will be an addition or subtraction, and solve it correctly. She has been using counting strategies including counting on and back in both addition and subtraction up to 20. Alex has been able to successfully rename ten ones as one ten.
