Country wide, TTRockstars are running a competition called England Rocks. Key details can be found below. Your child has an individual login for TT(Times Tables)Rockstars which is available for collection from their class teacher – if they don’t already know it or have it.

Come on 3H, let’s get rocking then we can start to climb the status ladder in our room too! I wonder who the most competitive pupil will be…could it be Mia, I wonder? Will you let her just take top spot or will you make her work for it guys? You never know, I may even challenge you myself! 😉

England Rocks – Maths Week

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.

Maths superstars

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.
