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 ⬇️
Maths has been a brain teaser today as the children have been tackling worded problems. This has not only been practicing their maths knowledge but also their reading/comprehension.
It was lovely seeing the children working together and supporting each other. They were starting to pull their knowledge of mathematical language in to help them decide on the operation needed to solve the problem.
What a start to maths week! We had a fab magic maths lesson today looking at our 8 times table. We used a counting stick to chant out loud, we worked against other tables chanting and we had competitions between the boys and girls. We then worked with our partner to complete a true and false activity. We then moved onto looking at the biggest and smallest number, selecting the correct answers from groups of numbers. We used our knowledge on place value to do this. Our final activity looked at using a written method for multiplication. We multiplied a 4 digit number by a 1 digit number and some children moved onto multiplying a 2 digit number by another 2 digit number. A super start to maths week! We are all looking forward to setting up our own grocery shop tomorrow, adding and subtracting money and finding change.
Have a lovely evening, see you all tomorrow!
What a start to maths week! We had so much fun exploring part whole models in today’s lesson and applying this to our fluency, reasoning and problem solving questions! We worked really well together to solve all of our problems. Come back tomorrow to see what else we’ve been up to!
Crew Welburn have spent the morning practicing their maths skills. We’ve been using manipulative objects to make numbers, to match objects to numbers and to order representations of numbers. Not only have we been working on our maths skills, but we’ve also been working in mini crews to build relationships, and to work on our sharing, listening and communication skills. We’ve had loads of fun and our HOWL scores were fantastic as a result!
