Today, in Maths, we had a carousel of different activities to help consolidate new and old learning. We measured some different worms and shapes using cubes, discussed equal groups and completed some 2D shape work.

Getting a plaster to help are friend 🩹
In our experience lesson today we had to quickly run around the assault course around the playground and get a plaster out of the bag for our new friend Carla, who head a big red bump on her head.
We were fab at getting the plaster fast to help our friend! We also produced some lovely writing in our books.
6 Time tables
We’ve had a big focus on our 6 timetables this week. Chanting them forwards and backwards and ensuring we’re saying the whole number sentence.
Multiplying by 10
Arithmetic today consisted of revisiting multiplying by 10 as this is something we’ve picked up in the arithmetic test as needing bit more practice. It was great seeing some children using the place value grid to support them.
We are geographers 🌍
During our expedition lesson, we had to piece together an image which was the map of the world. However, this map had new information that we hadn’t seen before. We learned that the Earth is divided into 7 divisions which are:
North Pole (Arctic Circle)
Northern Hemisphere
Tropic of Cancer
Equator
Tropics of Capricorn
Southern Hemisphere
South Pole (Antarctic Circle)
We then split into groups to do some research on one of the divisions before feeding back to the rest of the crew.
Related Facts
In maths, we have been learning about related multiplication and division facts. If we know 1 set of information then we can work out others such as 4×5=20, 4×50=200, 4×500=2000

Break time fun! 👟😀
We had lots of fun trying out the new skipping rope Miss Marsh ordered for us. Lots of children queued up to have a go and show off their skipping skills. We can’t wait to get it back out tomorrow! Thank you Miss Marsh!😃💕
Super Scotties session 👟💨🏃
This morning, we had lots of fun whilst working on our communication and listening skills. We were able to play lots of different games where we worked as a team to achieve a common goal. We can’t wait for next weeks session ☺️
3D Shape Making🍬
Today, in Magic Maths, we made some 3D shapes using marshmallows and cocktail sticks. We talked about what 2D shapes we could see that the 3D shape is made from.
