More Maths fun

Maths fun

In Maths, we are learning about numbers to 1000 and we have been learning how to show these numbers using Base 10 materials. Today we enjoyed a treasure hunt to find some Base 10 materials and work out which numbers they represented...

Baking for a Victorian banquet: November 28th

Tomorrow we will be sampling the delights of a Victorian feast, but first we have to make some of the food. This afternoon we made scones and cheese straws. We had to follow the recipe and convert from ounces to grammes so there was some maths to complete as well as cooking!

Devising board games in maths: 20th July 2017

After lunch we finished the maths games we started last week. The children worked in groups to devise their own board games and, after instructions had been written, other groups tried them out to see how well they worked. Some groups found that working in groups quite difficult because everyone had different ideas of how to do things. A lesson in teamwork as well as maths!

Building using nets: 20th July 2017

After break the children chose nets of different kinds of homes to make models, and I think you'll agree that they made a really good job of them..

Let's go fly a kite... 20th July 2017

Our first fun activity today was to make kites. Mrs Andrew showed us how to make them using a sheet of A4 paper, a straw, some sticky tape, a small piece of card, some twine and some strips of plastic cup from a carrier bag.

They flew really well as you can see...

Now you've just got to remember how to make them at home!
