We are continuing to work on our place value skills in our magic maths sessions. Today we also worked on our own times table grid which we will use as support when looking at column multiplication.

Magic maths in MI
The work hard howl was really shown today in our magic maths session 🙂 Children really tried hard when they were challenged but all still ensured they had a positive attitude.
What makes Magic Maths magic?🪄✖️
In our first magic maths session a child posed the question ‘what makes Magic Maths magic?’ The magic is that all the bits we keep forgetting in maths and arithmetic lessons and consolidated in Magic Maths and when we keep drip feeding it in… Abracadabra! We remember!
Based on gaps in our baseline assessment we focused on squared and cubed numbers and ordering decimal numbers. We will keep consolidating this so it stays in our long term memory!
Place value
In Crew MI, we have been working really hard on our place value knowledge. We used the base ten and counters to create 3 digit numbers. We now understand the value of each of these digits.
Place value continues in MI
Today we used counters to build numbers on our place value grids and to consolidate our learning from Friday. We then applied our knowledge to a variety of fluency questions. A positive attitude by all in todays maths lesson.
Let the battle commence!
Today MI worked on their times tables ready to battle against Mrs Ibbotson in assembly next week! Come on MI 🙂
Magic maths ➕
In maths today we got used to what our magic maths learning looked liked. I was blown away with how much the children achieved with their adding skills. Well done!
