Children in Year 4 have been using place value counters to explore flexible partitioning of numbers to 10,000.  

This morning, we've been working hard on expanded number forms. Well done Year 5!

Children in Year 4 have been recalling and revising Year 3 Place Value knowledge and skills before heading into Year 4 Maths.

Year 3 explore properties of 3 d shapes.

The Nursery children have been reading 'One is a Snail, Ten is a Crab' and discussing how many feet different creatures have.

 They then made footprints with paint, counting the footprints as they walked.

We have been revisiting addition and subtraction problem solving using our knowledge of number bonds to 100.

Skills: use the inverse to check my calculations

Vocab: inverse, number bonds

We have been learning all about |Position and Direction in maths using the Beebot

Knowledge: to recognise full turns, half turns and quarter turns.

Skills: to use the language of ":forwards, backwards, left and right"

Vocab: as above

Year 4 have been consolidating their angles and triangle knowledge with lollipops sticks.

Year 5 had to find the angle and label whether it was acute, right, a straight line obtuse, or reflex.

The children really enjoyed finding the angles (and drawing…

The Nursery children are working on making and counting sets, and recognising and sequencing numerals to 5. We sang number rhymes together and then did lots of activities around the class such as number puzzles and counting candles on playdough cakes.
