Can you read these sentences?

English
Join me on Teams for today’s English lesson. See above for a reminder of times and check your email for your invitation.
Maths
Reception – instead of adding numbers together today to make them bigger, we are going to take them away to make them smaller by finding one less than. Watch this video with your grown-up to help you.

So today, could you get a total of 5 objects and take one away. So start with 5 and take one away – how many are left? Repeat these down to 1 less than 1. Grown-ups, if you want to, you could show your child this as a number sentence, i.e. 5-1=4.
Years One and Two – today we are moving on to subtraction or taking away. Remember if you are using a number line, this means you will be jumping backwards when you are using it! Watch the video, then complete the worksheet.
