Flextangle Fun

What a fun time had in the last week of term making these flextangles. We had to take care with colouring our pattern, cutting, and then gluing it carefully. After the glue had had plenty of time to dry, it was time to give it a go!
Who needs an expensive fidget spinner when you have these bright and colourful paper toys to play with. Check out how to make them at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pta1R7g05Xg, download the template, and give it a go with your friends.

Breakout!

On Tuesday several of the students got to try out Miss Scott's Red Riding Hood Breakout.
Breakout EDU allows for the facilitation of games (related to different curriculum areas) where the players used teamwork and critical thinking to solve a series of challenging puzzles in order to open the locked box. 
It was a lot of fun and they managed to solve the puzzles with 3 minutes to spare! 

Thanks Miss Scott!

More Maths Talk about Multiplication

Students in Rooms 14 and 15 have regularly been coming together to solve a variety of multiplication problems. We have been using coins and counters, happy 100's, large dotty arrays, and simple arrays to show our multiplication facts. It is always a busy hour and the children love to share their thinking.
Check out Mrs Dent's video and also view the photos of the students in action.
We love maths!

Hannah and Samantha enjoyed sharing their maths problem about 8 groups of 6.

Look at all the maths we found in this array.
