Celebrating Maths Day in Crew Jackson

It was lovely to see so many children dressed up for the NSPCC Maths Day. Big shout out to Summer-Mai and Jakobi who won a small prize for creating their own unique maths themed tops.

We enjoyed a chilled out afternoon to end a work of hard work by eating biscuits and practicing our times tables on ttrockstars. Our Crew are determined to win Mr Ambler’s Year 5 Battle of the Bands!

This week we realised how important knowing our times table facts is. We needed to know them for converting fractions to the same denominator and also for calculating perimeter during our maths talk session.

Keep practicing guys!

NSPCC maths day! – Crew Oldridge

The picture says it all. So many wonderful maths related costumes! We even had a human calculator and a maths robot. To top it off everyone worked super hard in their maths sessions and Times Table Rock Star time. Well done class 13. Great effort!

A fantastic week of learning

This week we have seen lots of fantastic learning from the children in Nursery. The children have been learning about Chinese New Year and how this is celebrated in China. They all had a go at using chopsticks, moving Pom poms in to a bowl. There were some excellent fine motor skills being used and a few sneaky children using their hands too!

The children have enjoyed having older children from KS2 join us to read stories, we most certainly have a few teachers in the making.

We have ended the week with NSPCC number day. Thank you for the effort you put into T-shirts and outfits, the children all enjoyed looking at their friends outfits. The children have experimented with number through painting, drawing, stamps and games today and have thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Have a wonderful weekend
