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.
To support player well-being, 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.
4F have worked really hard this week in maths. They have enjoyed working on timetables through magic maths, and are beginning to add four digit numbers together using exchanges.
Mason worked hard independently to complete his maths fix and show number bonds within 10. #LovePlover
These children all received postcards today for their progress in maths. Their friends clapped them when they got their postcards as they were proud of them too. Well done everyone.

Children used numicon to show their knowledge of what different two parts make 10. Followed by independent part part whole questions in their new work books! #LovePlover

Finding 100 more and 100 less has pushed some of us out of our comfort zones. Then Alex and Lucas used the manipluatives to model the numbers to others who needed help and, by jove, we’re getting there now. Great job boys! Being kind, getting smart and working hard all-in-one…you superstars!

Using part part whole children learnt ways to add and write number sentences with + =
Well done to Chase, Weronika and Antonina who used counters to work it out! #LovePlover
Counting in 8s has been challenging for many of us this week but we have grappled and worked through it together. There were some very proud pupils by the end of today’s maths lesson and two very proud adults! Additional shout out to Alex for getting smart and using resources from around the room.
Well done everyone!
Mrs Haycock and Miss Millington.
