We have had lots of fun looking at Numberblocks and numbers to 10 today. We made 10 with the numicon and used our maths resources to answer tricky questions. We have had lots of fun!

It’s been a numbers kind of day in Crew Shields.

The children have took part in the TTRS Battle of the Bands with other schools. It is lovely seeing their confidence grow with their timetables.



Children had the opportunity to play maths board games with their peers. Not only could they consolidate their maths, they could build their crew relationships and communication. We even had some children support each other through the game rather than being competitive. Great Crew!





Have a lovely weekend Crew Shields 😀













Everyone knows that PE is one of the best parts of the week but I thought you’d like to see why. We do get on well together though, don’t worry!








Year 3 have had a fantastic morning of active arithmetic. We worked collaboratively to consolidate some of our skills, such as addition and subtraction. We really loved it and supported our peers well!




We have started our science lesson today by dissecting a tulip and labelling the parts. We loved this and cannot wait to finish learning about pollination and the life cycle of a flowering plant tomorrow!





NSPCC Number Day 2022 returns on Friday 4th February!
At Carcroft, we are really excited to take part in this year’s NSPCC Rocks Number Day. NSPCC Number day aims to raise money to help children across the UK, while having fun with Maths.
This term we have launched Times Tables Rockstars in KS1 and KS2.
As part of the NSPCC Number Day, we would like the children to dress up as their favourite rock star on Friday 4th February. During the day, we will be holding competitions between our crews/year groups. The children will even have the opportunity to challenge their crew and deputy crew leaders.
Donations to support the NSPCC will be greatly received.
We had a great lesson learning about plants. We actually dissected a flower so we could see the different parts and we labelled them. We learnt about pollination and even acted it out.


As part of Expedition and English, we are going to be writing a letter, as well as a song – keep your eyes peeled for the latter! We worked collaboratively on iPads to be able to see how humans are causing climate change. Check through the images to see how well we worked together!




Great team building activity to start our morning after the long weekend.
This was a great opportunity for children to develop their speaking and listening skills but also consolidate their maths knowledge.
Each child had a number on their head and they had to ask their peers questions about their number.
E.g – Is my number a 1, 2, 3 or 4 digit number? Is it a multiple? Is it odd? Etc.
