All pupils in the school have once again been issued with a maths task to be completed at home.

Last term we were delighted with the response to these activities and loved to see that lots of family members got involved in completing them together. I will be reporting back to National Numeracy this week and I’m so excited to show off all the amazing work and positive comments from the scrapbooks.

The activities are designed to be fun and relate to real life. Here are some comments we received:

“Had good fun doing this one.”

“We had lots of fun running around the house looking for all the 3D shapes, there is a lot. It’s a long time since I really looked at objects and tried to work out the 3D and 2D shapes.”

“This is an interesting example as it allows (my child) to start to understand the application of numbers in a real world context.”

“I did a good job.”

“We had fun using puppies to do maths.” (No animals were harmed in the process lol!)

If you haven’t tried one of the activities yet, please give one a go and let us know in the comments box on the sheet how you got on. Please contact me or your child’s teacher if you have any questions. Also keep an eye on your child’s class blog for some examples which might help to give you some ideas.

Here are some examples of the super work that was done last term.
