FUN Maths Workshop for Class 3 Families

 

Fun Maths Family Workshop Cl3

As you may be aware, at The Meadows we are currently working hard to improve children’s fluency and understanding in number. In order to do this, we have introduced daily 20 minute sessions aimed at helping your child to improve their recall of number facts. This is done by playing fun games, singing catchy songs, chanting and by providing children with the opportunity to apply their knowledge when calculating, reasoning and problem solving.

Reverend Peter's Assembly on Epiphany

 

Reverend Peter’s Assembly

On Tuesday 9th January, Reverend Peter visited us to lead a whole school assembly about Epiphany. At the beginning of the assembly, we sang a song which was called 'The Body Song' (which was about your body) and then we listened to the story about Epiphany. One night, the three wise men saw an unusual bright star in the sky; they knew it meant a new king would arrive. Therefore, they went on a journey to find him.

FUN Maths Review Autumn Term

 

F.U.N Maths Review

In September we launched FUN Maths – a new initiative aimed at helping our pupils to become fluent and proficient mathematicians. The reason for this is that we recognise that a lack of fluency of number facts can act as a barrier to learning; pupils who are not able to recall number facts quickly often struggle to apply this skill when calculating, problem solving and reasoning.

Christmas Lunch

Today we have enjoyed our Christmas themed lunch provided by Mellors. We ate a delicious Turkey roast dinner and for desert we had a choice between chocolate sponge cake or a Christmas tree biscuit. We particularly enjoyed wearing our festive hats! Here are a few photographs of our celebration:
