Well done to this week’s ‘Problem Solvers of the Week’ who made light work of this week’s reasoning questions! Great work from Ivy-Mae and Mia!
Another great week of lunchtime maths problem-solving had our children thinking carefully whilst they were in the queue for dinner this week. Well done to Mya and George whose excellent reasoning and correct answers were drawn out of the boxes. Great work guys and well done to everyone who took part.
Well done to Lilly and Austin whose correct answers were drawn out of the Key Stage boxes for this week’s Maths ‘Problem Of The Week’. Congratulations guys!
Well done to the first winners of our new maths ‘Problem of the Week‘ activity which encourages children to apply their maths reasoning skills to solve a question from their key phase. From the many correct entries received across Key Stage One and Key Stage Two, congratulations to Tiegan and Darcie whose names were drawn out with the correct answer!
Well done everyone and make sure you all enter next week!
We have had a spoofy fun filled week in Reception. We have created spooky art, recreated some stories and drawn pictures, investigated pumpkins and so much more. We finished it all with a fabulous Halloween party!
This week in Year 4, we had lots of fun in our problem-solving lesson. We gave every letter of the alphabet a number and then had many challenges to complete such as finding the value of different words. We have put a copy of the questions on this post for you to enjoy too!
This week we have been exploring pattern. We have looked at repeating pattern using objects, colour, language and percussion. We created pattern, copied pattern and became pattern detectives looking for pattern in our environment and in stories.

This week we began our maths and Sounds Write journey. In maths we have been matching and sorting. In Sounds Write we have our new sounds m, a, t, and s which we have been word building with. We have also been reading and spelling words containing those sounds. After our whole class learning lots of our children went out into the provision and began their independent learning, explaining their reasons and problem solving.
We have been working so hard to develop our gross and fine motor skills over the last few weeks. Outside we have been climbing, running, dancing and negotiating obstacles. We have also been using scarves, dough disco, cutting, drawing tutorials and so much more to develop our fine motor skills.
