Water Way to Learn!

 in Class Four / Maths by

This week in Class 4, our young mathematicians have been busy exploring the fascinating world of capacity! The children have been learning how we measure liquids and have discovered some very handy facts along the way.

We learned that one litre of water is the exact amount that fits into a cube measuring 10cm by 10cm by 10cm. Even more interestingly, that litre of water weighs exactly one kilogram—making it easy to estimate weight and volume together!

Using this new knowledge, the children had a go at estimating the capacity of a variety of everyday containers—everything from water bottles to measuring jugs, and even lunchboxes! After making their predictions, they tested them by filling the containers with water (but not the lunchboxes!) and measuring the results.

There were plenty of thoughtful discussions as students compared their estimates with the real measurements. It was a fantastic hands-on way to develop their understanding of volume, estimation, and the metric system.

We’re so proud of how curious and enthusiastic Class 4 have been. Who knew that maths and science could be so refreshing?

Shape

Class 2 have been learning lots about 2D and 3D shape over the past couple of weeks.

Maths, maths and more maths!

 in Class Two / Maths by

We have been learning to count forwards and backwards from 1-100 over the past couple of weeks. We have also been learning the value of tens and ones of each number using lots of different practical materials to help us!

Here are some pictures of us playing games and learning our numbers to 100.

Maths using chocolate!

 in Class Three / Maths by

Class Three started their multiplication and division topic by looking at arrays. We looked at egg boxes and baking trays and then moved on to chocolate! The children drew the array they could see, identified the rows and columns in each array and then recorded the multiplication and division facts. We has a fantastic time while learning all about arrays.

Brilliant Bonds!

Marvellous Maths in Class 2 !

 in Class Two / Maths by

During the past few weeks we have been learning all about place value in Math’s!  This has included finding one more and one less, comparing numbers and understanding the concept of how many tens and ones numbers have and partitioning them in different ways. Here are some pictures of us doing some of the activities!
