Fun in the Sun

We decided to make the most of the glorious Scottish weather and take our maths outdoors. We used chalk and also searched on the banking for natural materials to make up some of our times tables.

Some of us were sorting 3D shapes too. We had so many to look through!

We made sure we were responsible and cleaned up after ourselves at the end. We even tidied up some mess we hadn’t made. We were really sad to find lots of plastic cups and litter on the banking because we know how harmful this can be to wildlife. We brought all the plastic inside so Miss MacArthur can take it home to her recycling bin.

Mathematical Monday

This morning we all worked really hard during our maths lesson. We have all been learning about some really tricky things recently.

The circles have been learning about addition with carrying. They have worked so hard and done a fantastic job! Today they answered lots of addition questions and marked their answers using a calculator and one of Miss MacArthur’s special marking pens. Here they are looking very proud of their work:

The triangles have been learning their times tables. Today they had to put them to the test by answering lots of times tables questions and colouring the shape the right colour. Amber was very proud of her finished piece:

The squares have been learning about division with remainders. Today they took on the role of the teacher because Miss MacArthur thought they could do it best! They worked so hard to explain all of their thinking when solving tricky questions!
