We created anchor charts to support us with some of our arithmetic questions 🙂

Gap filling in arithmetic
Today we looked at and unpicked our last arithmetic paper. After some modelling, we used our purple pen to have another go at the questions we got incorrectly. Some great partner work shown 🙂 MI you really are showing great improvements in arithmetic, keep it up!
Arithmetic fun in MI
Wow, wow, wow!!!! What a fantastic afternoon we had in MI consolidating some of the arithmetic skills we needed more practice on. Yesterday we unpicked our test paper, looking at different examples together and we also used each other as effective coaches. Today we applied what we had practised yesterday and took part in a carousel of activities to really challenge our arithmetic skills. We rotated round a variety of fraction stations, decimal stations and also looked at different written methods. We were given a partner who we had to support throughout the afternoon and what a fantastic job we all did. Some amazing learning and such wonderful positive attitudes were shown throughout. I am incredibly proud of the learning that took place!
Shapes!
Today in Crew Welburn, we have been looking at 2D shapes. We learnt all about squares and rectangles, and then used a range of shapes to create pictures. Lots of these ended up on our proud pieces wall as we worked really hard to create them and to talk about the shapes and their properties within the pictures.
Week 2 in Crew Welburn
We had lots of fun in Crew Welburn last week. We explored our provision areas, began working on our final product plant pots so that the base coats were dry, and began looking at how the numbers 4 and 5 are made within our maths lessons. We also had a go at challenging ourselves to independently make and write words using our phonics sounds! Miss Welburn was very impressed with our Fred talk and blending.
Consolidating learning on mymaths
After completing our do now on converting between fractions, decimals and percentages, we completed different activities on mymaths to consolidate our learning. We really did reflect on the achievements we had already made and challenged ourselves further to improve 🙂 Our exit ticket then challenged us even further, however we worked collaboratively and supported each other to find the answers. A fab maths lesson MI 🙂
Active Maths
This week we have been comparing and ordering decimals by working collaboratively. We really enjoyed that it was active and will keep reconsolidating it so it sticks!
Ordering fractions and decimals in MI
Hooking in to Expedition!
This week, Crew Welburn are hooking in to our new expedition! We are looking at the expedition ‘How do things grow and change?’ and we are starting with the case study, ‘How can I help my body to grow?’ We begun our day by thinking about foods that help us to grow and how healthy foods are good for our bodies. We did some taste testing of different fruits, made some delicious fruit kebabs and voted for our favourite fruit! We loved tasting all of the different fruits, but our most popular with 11 votes was grapes!
Maths in MI
Our maths lesson started with an active starter to consolidate the work we have been doing converting between fractions and decimals 🙂 We had to use our maths skills and clear questioning to find our partner in the room!
Here you can see us all completing our hinge question on ordering decimals. Such focus in MI this morning. So many children completing reasoning and problem solving questions today 🙂
