Today we made Christmas bobble hats for the tree and wrote some instructions to go with them focusing on adverbials of time. I have loved tutoring these two ❤️
Here’s to more fun ahead in 2024.

Lots more place value going on this week.

Here we were working on comparing and ordering numbers up to 1 million, discussing the place value. Some of these numbers were really difficult to read but the comma helped us to separate the hundreds and the thousands.

We then played a greater than and less than game. Who can make the biggest 5 digit number? My pupil definitely won there with 99,999.

We subtracted to find the difference between our two numbers. No exchanging needed there. Phew!

What a lot of maths!

Year 3 place value today. Adding/subtracting on a hundred square, lots of practical work using deines (the deines are stacked btw before anyone tells me that’s actually 116 lol), partitioning numbers and making 3 digit number sculptures. We creatively managed to turn 765 into a swimming pool diving board 🤣 Our 456 four-poster bed was even better but unfortunately we fell asleep in it before we could take a snap! 😝
Finished with a quick revision of odd and even. Who said you can’t learn in 30 degree heat!! ☀️🥵
