This week we have linked quite a lot of our Maths to this weeks story – ‘Cinderella’.

Children have had to make necklaces using a certain amount of beads, find gems that have been buried for Cinderella’s tiara, work out how many guests can sit at each table at the wedding and we also looked at different ways to represent 6 using a ten frame.

Next week we will be doing more Maths work using the story based on length and height.   If you have any old shoes / wrapping paper / cuboid shaped boxes that you would be happy to donate, please send them in.

We warmed up by playing ‘Duck, duck, goose.’ Then the class moved around like different animals, We wonder if you can work out which animals we moved like?

Class 1 have had a very busy week doing lots of Maths work based around ‘The Gingerbread man’

The children have focused on the Story of  ‘The very hungry caterpillar’  and had fun working out how many actions they could do in one minute!  The children made their own suggestions what actions to test – how many times they could write their name / how many numbers they could write, how many times they could touch their toes and reach for the sky, how many times they could run across the playground, take off and put on their shoes, how many duplo bricks they could attach together!

We also played the game ‘What’s the time Mr Wolf?’
