This week the children have enjoyed taking part in Maths Week England based on the theme ' Three is a Magic Number.'
EYFS children have enjoyed thinking about number 3, whilst Y1/2 and Y2/3 completed a Maths on Toast workshop on terrific triangles. Y4/5 have created triangle webs and Y5/6 children have been solving a variety of puzzles. Ten children were chosen to complete the Primary Maths Challenge and children from Y3-6 have also competed in TTRockstars England Rocks competition.
Well done to all children for your willingness and eagerness to try lots of open-ended maths work and challenges and join in with the largest national maths festival in the world.
