Exploring programmable toys.
We gave our BEEBOTs the correct instructions using positional language to direct them to specific places on our map.

46In Year 6 we have been using bead strings and counters to help us understand the place value of numbers up to 10 million.
55We love using Learning by Questions in Year 6 to consolidate our mathematical knowledge and practise our basic skills!
53Today was a lot of fun! We made playdoh numbers, cheerio towers, shapes with straws and shape monsters!
64In maths we used different manipulatives and tens frames to add numbers within 20.
31In Year 6 we have been learning about linear number sequences. We used lots of different equipment to help us represent our sequences. We spotted lots of patterns!
49In Year 1 we used blank number lines and cubes to make number lines to 20 accurately.
33Year 6 have been learning all about algebra! They worked really hard to solve equations and mathematical problems with unknown variables using equipment.
52Y6 are making great progress in their booster sessions. It has been lovely to see so many children coming in each day! Well done!
30Y6 have been using Cuisenaire rods to create shapes with the same area but greater and smaller perimeters. We realised that the more exposed side lengths a shape has; the larger the perimeter!
25Today we had a challenge in maths, we needed to arrange ourselves into different number patterns, we looked at multiples of 2, 5 and 10.
40Year 5 carried out a number of triangle investigations. There was a prize for the winning team.
69Year 5 created different 3D shapes from cubes to hexagon prisms and cones. Great effort from all the children.
72Year 4 have had a busy first week, we developed our own class charter, we picked articles from the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child that we thought we needed in our class. We created pictures of a famous Liverpool landmark using a variety of techniques (can you guess where it is?), consolidated our knowledge of 4-digit numbers using manipulatives, learned what partitive nouns are and found out that ‘Being different is the best thing ever!’ What a week!
73Year 6 have been working really hard to secure their place value knowledge to 10 million!
19For maths party day Nursery class took part in a fun outdoor maths lesson. We collected twigs and leaves and matched them to numerals up to 5.
16Y6 explored three ways to measure a tree. We discussed different methods and used mathematical equipment and perspective to help us to estimate the height of the trees.
56Year 4 had lots of fun learning maths today, we played times table hopscotch, took part in Supermover maths sessions and played class tournaments on TT Rocktars. Who knew maths could be fun!
59Maths was lots of fun today in year 5, we took part in a maths lesson outside, creating symmetrical shapes and took part in lots of TT Rockstars tournaments.
52For Maths day in Year 3, we worked in small groups and one child was blindfolded, the child who was blindfolded was challenged to create a variety of 2D shapes from squares to pentagons, using rope. This was a new challenge but we worked so well in our groups and managed to make lots of different 2D shapes. Well done Year 3!
We have really enjoyed our maths sessions this week! We have done some measuring, BIDMAS and balancing equations – what a busy week!
50In Y6 we used Numicon, Cuisinairre rods and multilink cubes to explore number sequences. We learned about ‘term to term’ rules and the ‘n th term’.
49Y6 have worked incredibly hard to master algebra this week. They really enjoyed getting stuck in with a ‘Bipods and Tripods’ problem. They used a range of equipment to help them work in a systematic way. Keep it up Y6!
