Triangle group- Maths session

Today in maths we were learning to count on from the biggest number. We have gotten really good at saying the number that comes after,  so today we practised counting on from the biggest number. This pictures shows that we know which number is the biggest. 

Today we even added two numbers together by counting on from the biggest

 number. Miss Nua thinks we are pretty clever!
