Turn-taking, playing, mixing, stirring, speaking, listening, measuring, counting, experimenting = LEARNING!

The children used counters and tens frames to make number bonds to ten.

This week for maths we have been exploring length.  

We looked objects that were long and short and then went into the classroom and found other objects to compare.  

Year 2 had great fun using their maths skills and working as a team on our Maths Adventure Day.

Today Year 5 were tasked with solving a range of mathematical problems in order to stop the Robotrons.

The children worked in small groups and applied a range of skills to find the codes needed.

Thank you to Subject Revolution for leading a brilliant afternoon and the Year 6 volunteers for…

The Dark Code! 

Year 6 were tasked with a challenge this morning - to crack the codes and defeat the Robotrons! We came to school today to find that we had been invaded and had to work quickly and efficiently to crack several codes and send the Robotrons back to their own dimension.

Year 1 Maths Escape Room 

The children enjoyed completing all the exciting maths activities in the hall.  The activities included making necklaces for the Queen, number bond puzzles, using leaves to make the total 10, using magnets to find the different faces, using scales in the shop and…

Year 1 Maths- More than, fewer than, the same

The children worked in pairs to roll the dice and count out the counters. They used the vocabulary more than, fewer than and the same. 

Numberlines: A very useful tool

Today in maths, Y6 looked at using numberlines to represent VERY large numbers. The children investigated how to find the mid-point of a numberlines along with deciding any intervals that may (or may not) be marked. 

“Numberlines help us to measure and…

The children have been using concrete apparatus to help them find different combinations of tens and ones to make a given number.

Representing Numbers 

The children have been learning how to represent numbers using counters on the tens frame. 

“I like putting the counters on the frame.” 

Partitioning

Today we worked on partitioning numbers to 1000 using the tables and our dry wipe pens to make it more fun!
