Exploring the Story of 6 in P2!

19th Mar 2025

For our first day back after our short break, our P2 class were busy learning all about the Story of 6! We’ve been exploring the many different ways to make 6 using addition sentences. With the help of Numicon and part-whole models, we worked together to find number pairs that add up to 6.

Using Numicon shapes made it easy to see how numbers fit together, and our part-whole models helped us break numbers down and understand how addition works. From 1 + 5 to 3 + 3, we discovered all the possible ways to make 6!

It’s been fantastic to see everyone’s confidence grow with their number skills. Keep up the great work, P2!
