‘The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.’ – Paul Halmos
We are confident and competent mathematicians and we develop our numerical skills through a concrete, abstract and pictorial approach. We regularly revisit our prior learning and solve mathematical problems daily both in school and whilst navigating our daily lives. Throughout school, we use the ‘White Rose’ maths mastery scheme which provides us with strong foundations, a consistent approach and regular challenge. To find out more about the maths we learn in each year group, click on the link to the ‘White Rose’ progression documents.
Year 1
We have been learning about money. We can identify notes and order them, starting from smallest to greatest value #y1maths
Class One learning about one more and one less #y1maths
Class One were learning about forwards and backwards in maths today #y1maths
We have been learning to make equal groups.#y1maths
We have been finding out who is the tallest and who is the shortest in our class. We wondered if this would change if we measure again next month. #y1maths
Year 2
Class 2 have been finding objects that are longer and shorter than a metre. #y2maths
Class 2 have been exploring different ways to make an amount with money. #y2maths
Class 2 have been collecting data to try and find out which mini-beasts live in the woodland area. 🐞🐛🕷 #y2geography #y2maths
Year 3
Class 3 have been using analogue clocks to tell the time to 5 minutes #y3maths
Fantastic team work in Y3 this morning! 💰 #y3maths
#y3maths We have been busy finding fractions of amounts this week! 🧮
#y3maths We’re busy looking at volume and capacity in year 3! 💧
Class 3 have been comparing their height and feet length in centimetres. We discussed who was the tallest/shortest in our groups #y3maths
Year 4
We’re so good at using working out to solve problems . Look at our whiteboards #y4maths
We’ve started to use hundredths as well as tenths in maths. Ask us about decimals #y4maths
We’re using different methods to help us divide #y4maths
We’ve started dividing larger numbers today and had to do lots of exchanging. Brilliant maths in Class 4 #y4maths
We’re starting formal multiplication and working together brilliantly to help one another #y4maths
Year 5
Class 5 explored degrees in maths today #y5maths
Class 5 are working hard to work out the area of compound shapes #y5maths
Class 5 worked hard in maths today to find a fraction of a quantity #y5maths
Class 5 have been exploring equivalent fractions #y5maths
Class 5 working hard to partition numbers #y5maths
Year 6
Year 6 have been busy investigating nets of 3D shapes! #y6maths
Class 6 have worked hard to solve problems and represent their answers in different ways. We still love resources in Class 6! #y6maths
Class 6 have been working hard to use expressions in algebra this week! #y6maths
Look at our ratio superstars in Class 6 #y6maths
