Want to blow Y3 minds with perimeter without books or photocopying?🤯📏 You need: -Children -Trees -String -Rulers …seeing 😮 when a seemingly small leaf had a perimeter of 75cm was brilliant! Great concept intro & way to make it stick that perimeter is a measurable distance!

4️⃣5️⃣ seconds on UKS2 fractions with Numicon Converting between mixed numbers & improper fractions is quite possibly my favourite use of Numicon shapes. Every child can succeed by breaking it down to a question every child can answer: how many pegs? This is how I ❤️ to do it👇🏼

🐊Crocodile free zone🐊 All you need is a wb pen & some #Numicon tiles & you have a visual introductory approach to teaching greater than & less than in #KS2 Generalise: symbol opens up to number w/ greatest value Rehearse & apply rule to larger numbers (pictorial ➡️ abstract)

💬Finding the words to talk in Maths💬 Seen such a difference by providing vocab to scaffold discussions We can be hesitant to give the lang in fear of giving answer. But they still need to be able to select & apply! ⏱ Rcaps to assess knowledge retention & push for precision

Couldn’t have said it better myself. A buzzing maths lesson today ... we converted between mixed numbers and improper fractions. By the end of the lesson the children were confidently adapting the #numicon to best fit their learning style 🌈🌈❤️ #learningpartnergoals @OUPPrimary

🗣Talking multiplication & Numicon🗣 After being asked this week, I thought I’d share how Y3 have intro’d maths vocab 1️⃣Model key vocab (consistent colour coding helps) 2️⃣Give chn time to practically & orally rehearse 3️⃣Stem sentences gradually faded as move from novice👉🏼expert

Same & different: building strategic thinking 💭🤔 1️⃣Nursery: cover the board “Too big! Too small!” 2️⃣EYFS: cover the board in a repeating pattern 3️⃣Y5: cover the board using red & purple “I used five 9s because 9x5 is 45, then eleven 5s because 11x5 is 55 & the total is 100!”

🧩 Piecing the sentence puzzle together! 🧩 A guide to the building blocks of sentences we’ve recapped in #Year5 so far this term. We’ll be sending these home to support children and parents with homework. Too often, the terminology can seem so very abstract. 🖊 📖 #edutwitter

These lift the flap creations were the perfect format for us to summarise the creation story in RE today. The children loved making them too. Something about the 3D effect really brings them to life! 😄💡

With mum and I both teachers, we’ve had 18 months of anxiety thinking we wouldn’t all end up spending this day together. Very grateful to be able to be a part of my sister and fabulous new big brother’s big day on Thursday. 💒💕
