Sharing some Good News from Maths week
Children all through the school made a huge effort during maths weeks. There were lots of fun activities and some treats at the end of the week for all the children’s efforts. One activity we did as a whole school was guess how many marbles are in the jar and then some problem solving activities in each class, overall the children really enjoyed the active maths and some of the teachers shared some of the great news.
Tasha’s class class really enjoyed maths week. Tasha’s class maths game results were Mason came 1st in the maths week guessing the exact amount of marbles. Lucy came second as she was 1 marble off and Niamh 3rd with 2 marbles off. They really enjoyed the activity.
Alicia’s class did the maths guessing game guessing how many marbles were in the jar and how many envelopes were in the box. They made a fantastic guess as a whole class activity making a guess of 249 for the marbles and 107 for the envelopes. The class were so close with their guesses! The class did exceptional work during maths week, Naomi visited at the end of the week to congratulate on all their hard work!
Lynda class also did great work! The class did fractions-cut biscuits in half, found fractions of amounts using skittles and explored equivalent fractions using interactive fraction walls online.
Naomi visited Gearóid’s class and dropped presents all wrapped in plastic! Morgan won a prize for all his work during the week and couldn’t stop smiling.
