Maths in Year 2

We have been using different maths resources to represent numbers.

Y1- Maths

In Maths this week, we have been learning to find one more. We used the 10s frame and linking cubes to represent what one more than our number would be.

Year 1 Maths

This week in Year 1 we have been comparing amounts using symbols. We used cubes to prove that our number sentences were correct.

Learning about number two. 🌈

Our focus this week in maths is all about the number two. ⭐️🌈🥰

❤️🌈⭐️ Fun Friday in Early Years ⭐️🌈❤️

What a lovely morning we have had in our early years department this morning. ⭐️
We have been using our water play equipment, we have been pouring, mixing and strengthening our developing gross and fine motor skills.

❤️💛 Making patterns 💛❤️

Today in preschool we used linking cubes to make patterns. ❤️💛

3D Shapes

In Y1, we have been learning about 3D shapes. We have learnt their names and sorted them into different groups.

Pattern

The children in Reception have been learning about pattern. They explored making patterns such as spiral, zig zag, lines and dots. They then went on to make AB patterns with their bodies and coloured objects.

Making numbers

Today Year 1 were using Maths apparatus to make numbers between 10 and 20.

Partitioning five

In Reception, the children have been exploring ways to partition 5 into different parts. They have been singing five little speckled frogs and they have also been hiding the frogs into the pool to find different way to partition 5.

Year 4 NSPCC Number Day!

We have enjoyed taking part in NSPCC’s Number Day on TTRS today!

Number Day

Year 6 have been working on TTRS and solving interactive maths puzzles for Number Day.

NSPCC Number Day

Reception enjoyed taking part in NSPCC number day.

Achievers 28.2.25

Our amazing achievers this week!

Investigating 7

In Reception, the children played a game to investigate ways of making 7 with two parts.

Composition to 5

This morning in preschool we have been looking at different ways to make 5.

Number Doubles

Reception have been doubling numbers within 10 using their fingers, dice and objects. They also had a go at writing the number sentence.

Reception Maths – Capacity

in Maths this week, Reception have been learning about capacity. They have been exploring filling containers using whilst using the vocabulary ”full, nearly full, empty, nearly empty’.

3D Shape

In Reception, the children have been learning about 3D shapes. They built models using the different 3D shapes they have been learning about, whilst building the models the children talked about the properties of the 3D shapes.

Matching

In Maths this week Reception have been learning about sorting and matching. We read a story called ‘A Pair of Socks’ and then played a matching game.

Y1 Maths- shape

We have been looking at 3D shapes. Today, we were sorting the 3D shapes into different groups. We sorted them by colour, shape, shapes that stack and don’t stack, shapes with flat sides and curved sides.

Y1 Maths- repeating patterns.

Today in Maths, we have been using 3D and 2D shapes, along with objects from outside, to make repeating patterns.

Y2 Counting coins

In Maths today, Y2 were busy recognising the value of each coin to count them using number patterns. They even compared amounts using greater than, less than and equal to.

Water Play 💦❤️🥰

Winter weather didn’t stop our preschoolers from enjoying water play outside ❄️💦
The cold didn’t bother us as we splashed, poured, and laughed together, staying active and having fun ☀️🪣
Outdoor play in all seasons helps children build confidence, resilience, and a love for learning 😄🌿

Shapes with 4 sides

In maths this week, Reception have been exploring shapes with 4 sides. Children have identified the properties of the shapes by counting the sides and the vertices. We discussed a square having 4 equal sides is what makes it ‘special.’ Children then used their knowledge of shapes to sort shapes into 4 sides and not 4 sides, explaining where their shapes belonged and why.

The Three Little Pigs 🐷 🏡

This week in preschool our story is The Three Little Pigs 🐷📖

The children independently made their own house using bricks 🧱 They were so excited to discover that the Big Bad Wolf couldn’t knock their houses down! 🐺💨

Lots of problem solving, creativity, and big smiles all around 😄👏

Sorting by colour ❤️

In preschool we have been organising by colour in maths 🌈🔴🟡🔵
Great sorting and super thinking everyone 📊👏
Well done ⭐😊

NSPCC Number Day

Year 6 enjoyed dressing up with numbers and as rockstars for NSPCC number day. The children enjoyed taking part in some TT Rockstars!

Pancake Challenge.

Today in Reception, things got flipping fantastic! 🥞

We challenged the children to a one-minute pancake flipping contest and asked, “How many can you flip in a minute?” Using their fantastic gross motor skills, the children carefully flipped their playdough pancakes in the pan while counting each one.

There was lots of concentration, excitement and big smiles as they tried to beat their own scores. What a fun way to build coordination, confidence and counting skills all at the same time!

Y6 Maths

Year 6 have been leaning how to solve and form algebraic equations. They were finding patterns in numbers by moving different coloured frogs on the iPads to form their equations
