Maths Week Challenge 1

Work together to see how many maths words you can think of for each letter of the alphabet! I’ll let you into a secret … J is a very tricky letter so I’ll be super impressed if anyone thinks of a maths word starting with J!

Please send your responses to [email protected] and / or bring them in to show your teachers!

We can’t wait to see how many words you come up with and who has the most creative words!

Class 7 life skills superstars

Look at these 2 fabulous young men who have jumped straight into their life skills home learning tasks for this term. Eli helped mummy by washing up the breakfast dishes and Charlie certainly knows how to impress by baking these delicious looking cookies and setting a couple aside for me! I can’t wait to ruin my diet with them!

What a great way to Get Smart by doing extra learning at home. 20 HoWL points each for you boys. Well done.

Y1 Battle of the Bands!

To celebrate maths week Class 6 and Class 7 have been entered into a tournament on TT Rockstars. The battle will commence at 8am tomorrow morning and will run until 8am on Friday. All correct answers the children log between these times playing the game on TT Rockstars will count towards their score in the tournament.

Watch out for more fun maths activities during the week and don’t forget Number Day on Friday where the children are invited to dress up in any maths or number related costumes.

Maths has never been so much fun! Good luck Rockstars!

Y4: Bean planting!

Last week, we ‘planted’ some beans to investigate which conditions are best for plant growth. We are excited to see if any have sprouted over the weekend! Over the next couple of weeks, we are building on our KS1 knowledge of plants and are looking forward to learning lots of new things!

Be a Times Table Superstar in year 1 and 2!

We are very excited to announce that we are launching Times Table Rockstars for our classes! Your child will be coming home this evening with login details for an exciting game to help them with their times tables. Your child’s class teacher will have set tables to practise in the garage section of the game. The more they play in this section the faster they will progress through the tables they need to learn. We will be checking the ‘heat map’ each week to see your child’s progress and move them to the next table once they have learned the one they have been set. You can set your own tables in the jamming section but try to stick to ones the children are currently learning…2s, 5s and 10s for year 1 and 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s for year 2. I have attached a video here and a letter here which will give you more information about the game and it’s different levels.

Any questions please see your child’s class teacher.

ROCK ON ROCKSTARS!!!!!!!!!
