These superstars are smashing their home learning! I am ever so proud of them both as they have been really working on their personal academic pledges and getting SATs ready- you stars!

A huge shout out to all of the parents who were able to join us on Thursday at our UKS2 maths parent workshop! They had the opportunity to work through an arithmetic paper just like their children will be sitting in a few months time!
In our next session, we will be looking at how to add and subtract fractions in order to further support their children at home.
The challenge for those of you who could not make it has been added to Google classroom and is due next Thursday!

Fun and active ways to practise times tables proved a hit this afternoon. It’s amazing how competitive the usually quite ones were…you know who you are people! Well done and keep practising those multiplication facts at home too. Perhaps you could challenge others at home like we did with each other today? Let’s get those minutes and scores up on TT!

Today in Maths, we noticed that any number divided by itself always equals 1. We also noticed that the quotient (answer) of a division question will be the same as the dividend (the amount that will be divided) if our divisor (what we divide by) is 1.
Well done everyone – some great links made today. I wonder if you can apply today’s fluency to tomorrow’s reasoning and problem solving…

This week, we are exploring the composition of the number 6 in whole class maths. In provision, we have been using our knowledge of numbers to call the story book characters on the phone. We have had some great chats! We have been learning to write the number 6, starting in the correct place and measuring items from the Goldilocks story, using cubes. Mrs Bubb is so impressed with our hard work in maths and we can see every day that we are getting smarter!
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.

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!
