Solving Problems in Maths
Children collaborated to work out some problem solving math questions. Then they used the steps and bead strings to complete their maths work book. Well done 1M! #LovePlover
We Care Wednesday- We Remember
England Rocks!
We’re celebrating Maths Week England by taking part in a friendly times tables (and division) competition. The competition runs from 07:30 GMT Monday 14th November to 19:30 GMT Wednesday 16th November. It’s all done online via play.ttrockstars.com.
Children can play in any game mode with every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, earning themselves, their class and the school a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform will calculate the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours, subject to a daily 60-minute limit (see below)). Winning classes in the school and in the competition as a whole will be the ones with the highest average. There may even be prizes to be won!
To support player wellbeing, there is a daily time limit of 60-minutes per player. In other words, each player can earn competition points for up to 60-minutes between 07:30 GMT and 19:30 GMT on 07:30 GMT Monday 14th November to 19:30 GMT Wednesday 16th November. Once the player goes beyond 60-minutes of play on that day, they will still earn coins but will no longer earn points towards the competition.
In the spirit of the competition, please don’t play on their behalf but by all means encourage and support them to the extent that it doesn’t cause high stress levels or impact on family plans.
Awesome Angelica
I was so impressed with Angelica when checking the children’s reading records this afternoon. Not only has she been reading at home, she’s also been practising her high frequency words, phonics spellings and 2s, 5s and 10s! Great job 10 CC #LovePlover
Superstar Alec
Since coming back after half term Alec has shown great maturity in his behaviour and emotions and has displayed the awesome learning we know he is capable of! #LovePlover
Historian Expert
KS1 enjoyed learning about the history of castles and different ways castles were built!
Let the battle commence!
Learning Labs in Y1
After maths this afternoon children enjoyed exploring our learning labs! Some followed step by step instructions to draw a Knight, drew and engineered a castle and weapons, created number bonds using painted numicon and a shout out to Angel who read and spotted red tricky words in her story! #LovePlover
Motivational Monday
We started this mornings crew after feelings check in with a “Workout with Wicks!” To get our brains, bodies and fine motor skills ready for another fab week of learning! #LovePlover
