We love numbers! Maths is fun! Today we celebrated number day with lots of learning and fun activities all linked to numbers and maths. We worked hard to make our own number track games, match numbers, make numbers, jigsaws, bee bots and dominos! As well as using our counting skills outside! #LovePlover

We’re on the move
Our new expedition is called We’re on the move! This week we have been looking at different ways we can move, keeping our bodies active and healthy. We had a go at making playground markings, using an obstacle course and riding the bikes.

A lovely local walk..
Today, we followed our maps around our local area. We turned right, crossed the road, past the shops, along to the roundabout, turned left and left again, past the church, left at the end, past the post office, over the road, back past the shops and around the corner back to school. We spotted different buildings, we counted, we waddled like penguins…we had a really lovely morning! Thank you to all the grown-ups who came to help.
Plover Maps It Out!
We read Martha Maps It Out in expedition. This allowed us to share our background knowledge of maps. We then looked at our local community on Google maps and created our own provision map. We practised the route that we will follow tomorrow on our fieldwork study. Outside children created their own obstacle courses, maps and vehicles! #LovePlover

Rocksteady Concert
Last half term, we were lucky to enjoy the first Rocksteady concert of the year
.The children thoroughly enjoyed performing the music they have learned in their Rocksteady lessons, confidently sharing their skills with the audience. It was wonderful to see how far they have come, playing with enthusiasm and growing confidence. We are incredibly proud of the children for the fantastic progress they have made and the effort they continue to put into their music learning.
A big thank you to Jack for the hard work this year!







Mapping out our route
Today, we used the big Map to move the characters around the roads of our local area. Tomorrow we will do it for real and follow our own small maps.
We also helped beebot navigate around his picture maps.
We are crew!
We are kick starting our new term with team building in crew. We are focusing on the character trait respect this term. The children had to work in teams to build the biggest tower. They had to listen to one another’s ideas, whilst showing respect to try and build the biggest tower with their shoes!
