Year 1 have been introduced to the part – whole model today. We have had fun exploring and partitioning numbers #stfinbarsmaths

Year 1 have been learning about number fact families…

Year 1 have been learning about number fact families. We have used lots of different ways to help us understand quantity and number bonds, working together as a class. #stfinbarsmaths

Maths fun today

My little learners have been working so hard to partition numbers to 100 ?  #StFinbarsMaths #mathsisfun

Look at our amazing partitioning ?

We love a maths challenge…

We love a maths challenge, I wonder if anyone will be able to solve this ?

1 more, 1 less

Reception used blocks today to represent one more, one less!

NSPCC number day

Learning about the NSPCC and using Real life maths.

We used our math’s skills to research the best value for in school and out of school treats for after SATs. We discussed the price of a coach, taking public transport or the possibility of being able to walk.

We now understand how expensive it actually is for 30 children to go out for the day.

Measuring length

Daffodil class have really enjoyed measuring their classmates, we have used cubes to compare each other’s length. How many cubes long do you think you are?

No pen day in Rose Class

Year 6 loved their No pen day experience, with lots of practical and computer based activities. From creating our plans for English on our chrome books to using multi-link cubes in maths to explore volume. It is to be continued after SATs.

Partitioning tens and ones

Daffodil class have worked really hard exploring how we can partition a two-digit number using base ten to support us.

Sorting

We have worked hard to sort objects into different categories.

16.09.25 – Maths – Place Value

Today, we were making two digit numbers and discovering how many tens and how many ones were in each number. We were able to make these using base ten.

Place Value in Year 6

Smashing place value in year six. Consolidating our learning using resources. Playing games has helped us learn. This game was to make a number closest to the target number.

Number lines

We’ve had so much fun learning about number lines. We counted forwards and backwards and then found one more and one less.

04.11.25 – Maths – Adding 2 two digit numbers

Today, we were demonstrating how we can add 2 two digit numbers using various methods, like column and using pictorial representation. Everyone really enjoyed doing this today and absolutely smashed it!

08.09.25 -Maths- Place value to hundreds

During this maths lesson we looked at recapping our place value learning from year 3. We discussed ones, tens and hundreds before using the base 10 to build and say a number. We were even able to build and say a number after being given the numbers as base 10 all jumbled up.

15.09.25 -Maths- Place value charts and counters

In maths we focused on learning about the thousands column and the value of it. We then practised creating a number we were given and reading the number aloud. We felt really confident and were able to build a number when Miss Summers said the values in a random order. This showed how well we were understanding the values and which order they belong in to create the correct number. To end the lesson some of use became the teacher and created a number for others to build!

22.09.25 -Maths- Using base 10

During this lesson we were learning about thousands. Once we were confident with where thousands belong in a number we moved onto building given numbers with the base 10 equipment. After building the number we then practised recognising the value within each column.

14.11.25 -Maths- Addition: adding together

Look at our amazing maths learning. We have been practising adding numbers within 10.

17.11.25- Maths- Cubed Numbers

In Maths today, Year 5 explored cubed numbers in a really hands-on way. We used equipment to build actual cubes, which helped us see how a number multiplies by itself three times. The children were very engaged and worked brilliantly together to spot patterns and make connections. It was a fun, practical lesson that supported their understanding and there were lots of proud moments!

20.11.25 -Maths- Making shapes using area

Today we have been using given areas to create rectangles, squares and rectilinear shapes. We have drawn them and fond different shapes with the same area.

27.11.25 – Maths – Subtracting

We have been working so hard to understand subtraction by crossing out. We have also focused on writing our calculation sentences. Look at our amazing independent work.

27.11.25 – Maths – Multiplication fact families

Today we have been practising our 6 times tables while learning an out making arrays. When we were confident with the arrays we linked this to how we can use it to find the fact family. This meant we could find two multiplication and two division facts that linked together.
