Year 2 Maths- Times Table Rockstars
This morning, Year 2 enjoyed practising their 2 times tables on Times Table Rock Stars. They used a 100-square grid to support them when counting and jumping in 2s. Well done, Year 2! Keep up the fantastic work and keep practising! 🌟
Reception Maths - Counting to 5
This week in Reception, our early mathematicians have been exploring cardinality and honing their counting skills up to 5. We have been discovering that the main reason we count is to find out "how many" objects we have in total. Through hands-on activities, the children have practised careful, one-to-one counting, learning the crucial rule of cardinality: the last number we count tells us how many there are altogether. Whether counting physical objects, actions, sounds or pictures, the children have been building strong foundations in number sense and gaining confidence in declaring the final total!

Year 2 Maths- Times Table Rockstars
This morning, Year 2 enjoyed playing on Times Tables Rockstars. They practised their times tables through multiplication and division in both the jamming and garage setting. Well done, Year 2! 🎸🌟
Year 2 Maths
This week in maths, Year 2 have compared and ordered numbers to 100 using the greater, less than and equal to symbols. We have also looked at the patterns involved in counting in 2s, 5s and 10s and used this knowledge to complete number sequences. We have been working exceptionally hard. Well done Year 2.
Year 6 - Place Value
Today in Year 6, the children focused on the mechanics of place value, exploring how numbers change when multiplying by 10, 100 and 1,000. Using place value charts, the children developed their understanding of how each digit moves between columns and how its value changes when multiplied by powers of 10. They used this understanding to explain their reasoning and identify patterns within the numbers.
Year 2 Maths- Partitioning Numbers
Today in Maths, Year 2 were flexibly partitioning numbers to 100. We started with the most basic method, splitting numbers into tens and ones. We then increased the challenge by moving a ten from the first part to the second each time, exploring different ways to partition the same number. We used Base 10 equipment to support our understanding and make our thinking visible. Fantastic maths, Year 2! 🌟🔢
Year 1 Maths: Sorting Objects
Year 1 tried really hard with sorting objects into groups of either colour, shape or size. We were really impressed with how fast they could figure out the groups. Some children even found that some objects can be sorted into multiple groups.
Our First Day in Year 2
We had a fantastic day welcoming all the children back to school and into their new Year 2 classroom! 🌟 Mrs Lyons and I were so impressed by their maturity, wonderful manners and positive attitude towards learning. We recapped our school rules, enjoyed some practical maths activities, worked on sentence accuracy and even kickstarted our new Art unit, Sculpture! Well done, Year 2 — you have made a brilliant start to the new school year! ✨
Year 1 Maths: Obstacle Course
Year 1 completed a blindfolded obstacle course in Maths. This linked to our current topic Position and Direction. One partner had to use words such as forwards, under, over, left and right to direct their blindfolded partner to the end of the course. It was amazing to see how well they could use these words to explain the directions and the children enjoyed it.
Year 2 - Maths - Making Bar Charts
Year 2 have been making bar charts in maths to record statistics. We made them practically with cubes and then pictorially on a bar chart.
Year 3- Maths- Exploring Angles in Geometry
This week in maths, we have been exploring acute, obtuse and right angles and learning how to identify them based on their size.
Year 1 Maths: Partitioning Numbers to 100
Year 1 used fantastic mathematical skills when partitioning numbers to 100. They had two piles of cards, a tens pile and a ones pile. They had to pick a card from each pile and put them together to make a whole. They had to write how many tens they had and how many ones. Some children also noticed that, for example, having 7 tens and 10 ones would make 80, using their tens times tables to help them. Miss Woods was very impressed with how quickly they were able to work out the wholes.
