After reading the story of ‘Dilwyn The Dragon’, we designed our own repeating patterns	They were shirts, just like the ones worn by the robbers in the story	We used either 2, 3 or 4 colours
We also drew our own repeating patterns on the screen	Here is a repeating pattern made from Mobilo

In our first few weeks of Year 1 we focused on ‘number and place value	We did lots of different counting tasks	Here we had to carefully count the different farm animals
We had to concentrate to make sure we didn’t miss any	We then learned about ‘part whole models’	This helps us to add numbers
