Today we used the song 5 speckled frogs to help us say 5 is made of ? and ?. The children used 5 frames, the frogs and fingers to help them.

We are becoming more confident!
The growth in everyone’s confidence in Maths over the last couple of weeks has been so rewarding to witness. Well done to everyone who comes to me for their Maths lessons. Keep listening carefully, working hard and getting smart – the manipulatives really will help you if you use them correctly. I saw great work with them today: helping you to solve problems about multiples of 12.

We understand why we feel as we do…
In Crew we this week, we have been showing different emotions with our faces, body language and/or actions. Then we considered what can actually cause us to feel these emotions. Thinking about this has helped us to think carefully about how our actions can have an impact on others and why some people might need to be shown extra compassion at times or may act out of character.

Our fraction experts took charge of the lesson in 6B today!
Today in maths our fractions unit has come to an end so I challenged 6B to each lead part of today’s lesson to the rest of their group. They consolidated their fractions learning by modelling to their peers how to answer a range of SATs style questions and they smashed it!Future teachers in the making for sure!

Testing Materials
After reading The Three Billy Goats Gruff, we read the story The Three Billy Goats Fluff. In that story, the goats were knitted some boots to help them trip trap over the bridge more quietly, so that they did not disturb the troll. First we had a go at making loud and quiet sounds with our own bodies. We were then scientists and tested a range of materials to see if they helped the goats cross our bridge more quietly, then decided how we could use these to help the goats. We used the BSL signs for agree and disagree, when predicting if the materials would be loud of quiet.

Caring Crew
Today, we talked about how we need to keep a healthy mind to take care of ourselves. If we take care of our minds and feel happy, we will be even better at being kind. Even if it was tricky, we respected our friends and stayed quiet and calm throughout. The children did so well and all said they felt happy afterwards. At Plover, we work hard, get smart and we are kind!

5 is made up of…
With the help of the 5 little Speckled Frogs song, we learned more about the composition of the number 5. We then used manipulatives to demonstrate our learning on a part whole model. At the end, we consolidated our learning by using the sentence ‘5 is made up of…and ….’ Ask our children if they know how 5 is made?
