This week, we have been using our maths skills in our PE sessions. First, we have estimated, counted and comparing the number of each exercise we completed.
In our session with Coach Luke, we had to answer maths questions before moving onto the next station.
Crew Godley really enjoyed working with Coach Luke today to complete some tricky maths challenges! We had such a fantastic time working hard to solve maths problems working against the clock and each other.
This week we have been learning how to multiply. The children have worked hard in mini crews to complete a range of different tasks with many successes. It is lovely to see the children engaged in their learning and excited about maths
We have really enjoyed our active maths lessons today! Half of the children visited Crew MI’s grocery shop where they added money amounts and then found change. All children were fully engaged in this activity and loved visiting the shop and handling the items.
The other half of the class moved around a series of activities in the hall. One activity involved throwing tennis balls into place value boxes and then using their place value knowledge to work out the number they had made. Another activity involved jumping, hopping and leaping and children measured the distance they had travelled. They also measured each other’s heights! Another further activity involved throwing a large beach ball around in a circle. When the ball was caught, the children had to add and multiply the numbers by their thumbs. This involved quick recall of our times tables as well as mental addition. The final activity was a puddle jump all based around their 6 and 8 times tables. Children had to chant the 6 times table whilst jumping onto the correct number.
What a fantastic lesson we had today, with so many elements of maths included.
See you all tomorrow 🙂
Today in Crew Nursery we had P.E with Coach Luke.
The children worked hard to count how many times they could throw and catch the ball and watched carefully to see how many times Miss Chapman could throw and catch the ball, counting from 1-10.
Our P.E Superstar today was Macey-Rose, she listened carefully to Coach’s instructions and did some brilliant counting. Well Done Macey-Rose!
Today’s maths challenge was all about the addition symbol! ➕➕We used our practical objects like the cubes, vehicles and counters to practice making addition number sentences and added all of our objects up to find the answer! Some of use really tried to get smart and challenge our brains by working with teen numbers because we were so confident! 💪🏽🧠
We had so much fun working with our objects and we can’t wait to see what the rest of our maths week has in store for us!
Today, we have been working on our maths. We started the session by recapping shapes in Magic Maths. This tested our knowledge on equal sided shapes, name shapes and how many we could see in a picture!
Then we worked on multiplication. We recapped the language, such as repeated addition, groups of and multiplied by so that we felt comfortable with returning to multiplication, before we take the next step. This is really important and we were super stars with it today, during our practical lesson! Check out some images below:
What a busy start to our week, celebrating everything great about maths 🧮 🧠
We have kick-started our active maths by investigating place value and number facts to solve problems. The crew agreed on an ‘Activity Challenge’. Our favourite was how many ⭐️ jumps can you do in 1 minute ⏱ ? Jake achieved 75! We estimated, counted our actual, recorded and discussed positions 🥇. So many skills involved 🧠
This week, sees our Walkathon 🏃♀️ event taplace. We have our fingers crossed for good weather so that we can complete our 100 laps and have some fun in the process. Please could we ask that any sponsor money be sent to school this week.
Have a great week everyone ☺️
This morning, we kick started maths week with a times tables game 🧠 – around the world 🌎! We have also been playing times tables fizz buzz focusing on replacing multiples of 3 with ‘fizz’ and multiples of 5 with ‘buzz’ – this challenged our brain power 🧠. Tomorrow we will be playing kahoot quizzes 📱 to challenge our arithmetic skills!
Maths week has commenced in Crew Mc. So besides working hard in our daily maths lesson today we started the morning off with a maths Crew! This involved a kahoot quiz, because who doesn’t love a kahoot quiz and to compete against their peers. We have started today by consolidating place value learning from last half term. The hard work definitely paid off from last term as our winning team only got 2 questions wrong – they blamed the quiz for no full marks as that must have been wrong 🤔 Check our tense facial expressions below ⬇️
