This week, Year 3 were given a secret mission… Treasure had been stolen and hidden somewhere in school! The Year 3 children were tasked to use their multiplication skills in order to solve a range of questions, crack a code and figure out where the treasure was hidden! These super sleuths were courageous, resilient and showed great endevour to find the treasure. Well done all of your delightful detectives!
This week 3SG have had such a wonderful time learning about the grid method for multiplication in maths. To celebrate their success, we had a little treasure hunt, where the children not only had to complete some hard hitting equations, but then break the code to find the hidden treasure too! Much fun was had 😀
This morning we have had a go at challenging ourselves with some maths problems. These tasks require determination but with a little bit of perseverance the children were able to problem solve their way through! Just a bit of trial and error to get to the solutions!
Today in 3TE, the children have been engaging with mathematics and art simultaneously by creating some beautiful reflective artwork. As you can see, they have indeed achieved some lovely creations!
5HJ have been diving into the short multiplication and it’s been fantastic to see their progress! With a bit of practice and plenty of focus, they’ve been mastering how to multiply larger numbers step by step. The children have really embraced the challenge showing a lot of determination and teamwork as they solve problems. Not only are they sharpening their multiplication skills but they’re also building confidence. It’s exciting to watch them grow in their understanding and enjoy the process of problem-solving!
In honour of Maths Week England, the children have participated in a range of different maths based tasks this week. We have explored and completed a variety of problems that required some different thinking.
The children have showed great perseverance, resilience and patience. They’ve had to work systematically and had to work together to battle through these difficult problems but have done so exceptionally.
This morning, 5HJ explored a range of 3D shapes including cubes, spheres, pyramids, and a selection of prisms. The children were tasked with the job of identifying the amount of faces, edges and vertices to solve mathematical problems.
Today, 4TE were tasked to use their division skills within maths to solve a great crime! Through using great perserverence, teamwork and resilience, this bunch of budding detectives and mathematicians managed to crack the case! Great work, team!
Today, 4TE were given a very special assignment… Using their recently aquired proficiency of grid method multiplication, the children had to solve a series of questions in order to uncover a codeword which led to a stash of ‘gold’ hidden somewhere in the school! The children showed brilliant resilience and teamwork to perservere with the challenge and as can be seen, to eventually find the gold!
Today, Year 4 have been flexing their mathematical muscles by demonstarting their recent proficiency towards grid method multipliation! These messy multiplications showed the children’s grasp and they fully enjoyed themselves. Whether this enjoyment came from the maths or writing on the tables, remains to be seen!
