Yesterday we used a written method for multiplication. We looked at multiplying two and three digit numbers by a one digit number. We even challenged ourselves with some reasoning and problem solving questions 🙂

Bonfire night discussions in MI
Yesterday we discussed the reasons why we celebrate bonfire night. We watched and explored a video clip all about Guy Fawkes then discussed our thoughts in mini crews. We then thought about firework safety and the reasons why this is so important. We then applied our learning to a kahoot quiz!
Caring crew in MI
Today we discussed friendships and what friendship means to us. We talked about what makes a good friend and how we make sure we are a good friend to others. We then took part in a task where we had to communicate with others in the crew, finding someone else who likes doing certain things e.g someone who likes dogs, someone who likes pizza. We enjoyed learning more about each other and talking to each other a little more. We then thought more about how we are all good friends and what we do to show this daily.
Exploring arrays in MI
Today we looked at what we mean by multiplication and division…
We used cubes to explore arrays then worked with our partner on a problem solving question. We have really enjoyed our maths lesson 🙂
History case study reflection in MI
Wow, wow, wow, Crew MI you blew me away this afternoon with the knowledge you showcased on our two history case studies. We thought about our guiding question ‘How does war change lives?’ and answered it through a mind map. We unpicked all the areas that related to our guiding question, we explored what we could remember about those areas and how they answer the guiding question. Children we so engaged and could talk about everything we had looked at throughout the two case studies. We have thoroughly enjoyed our history case studies 🙂
Anne Frank in MI
We have really enjoyed learning about Anne Frank in our expeditionary learning this week. We learnt about Nazi persecution on Jewish people and all about the Holocaust. We have all been so engaged in this subject area this week with so many questions raised. We were all very mature in our approach to this subject and really showcased our best selves.
Recycling crew in MI
This week is recycling week! We discussed the term recycling in our mini crews and gave some examples of what we recycle. We then took part in a recycling quiz which we all enjoyed! There was some great collaborative working with some great discussions of answers together.
Single-clause sentences in MI
Today we continued our work on single-clause sentences which we are now getting really confident with. We also looked at the ‘leftovers’ thinking about which clause they belong to. We used counters and different coloured pens to show the different clauses and worked in mini crews to check our ideas. Super impressed MI 🙂
Word problems in MI
Today we continued with our maths game where we solved lots of one step word problems. We are getting much more confident when deciding on which operation is needed.
Maths in MI
Our do now allowed us to consolidate our learning on roman numerals, we are all getting really confident with these 🙂 The activate part of the lesson really got us thinking. ‘The answer is 100’ What could the question be? There were some great collaborative working on this and some great questions were generated. Well done MI 🙂
