In Maths we are concentrating on those tricky reasoning questions. We’ve looked at the given information and written down what we’ve noticed. We have then thought of our own questions. @SMCLtdMaths
Miss Jones' Maths' Class enjoyed our practical counting in 5s lesson #mathisfun @SMCLtdMaths
A brilliant day celebrating #WorldBookDay in RW with the dazzling book ‘Lifesize’. It made for an action packed maths lesson! @SMCLtdMaths We measured the height of an elephant outside and compared our height to it and used Numicon pegs to measure the length and width of animals.

Investigating factor pairs this morning by creating different arrays. @WhiteRoseMaths @SMCLtdMaths #welovemaths
We also had @SMCLtdMaths visit on Friday. Sarah made some mud soup with us in our mud kitchen and was impressed with our Mathematical language and counting skills. Thank you for visiting! 🔢@BedfordPrimary
M istakes A llow T hinking to H appen In year 2, we encourage our children to choose resources that can help them solve problems. There is always a constant buzz in our ‘You Choose’ maths area, and it is always a great opportunity for discussion @SMCLtdMaths @BedfordPrimary
🗳Today, we used our voting station to help us with our reasoning skills! Which shape do you think is the odd one out? Year 1 could explain their ideas really well. 🟢🟪🔻@NCETM @SMCLtdMaths
We have been investigating number bonds in Year Two, using them to work on our problem solving skills. We have learnt how to make a prediction, work systematically to find all possibilities and identify repeats! @SMCLtdMaths
Miss Jones’ Maths Class we’re finding all possibilities today using our number bonds to ten. #weareproblemsolvers @SMCLtdMaths
Our maths working wall transforms every lesson! I love how the children are adding to it independently throughout the day 👍🏼👏🏼 @BedfordPrimary @SMCLtdMaths
#CalculatorCrunch begins in 5 days! On each weekday from 21 June to 1 July we will tweet an engaging question for Year 6 & 7 aged children, that all involve using a calculator. The questions are designed to deepen children’s mathematical thinking skills in a fun way.
