Over the past couple of days, Team JF have started to explore bridging 10. The children used their existing knowledge of bridging 10 using a number line to aid their understanding when using a place value grid. To begin with, we recapped our knowledge of tens and ones. From this, we made the numbers using Base 10, talking through each step. As we became confident with this, we started to talk through the importance of counting from our ones and found the total. We quickly realised we had too many ones and gave the whole tens to our neighbour. The children practised these steps, talking through each with their partner, to gain a secure understanding of what was happening to the numbers and why they were moving columns.

This week, we don't just have TT Rockstars, we also have Numbots Superstars. Teams CW, EO and AC have joined in with the mathematics fun using the Numbots aspect of TT Rockstars. We are proud of each and everyone of our committed Park Streeters who participate in Numbots and TT Rockstars at home. Well done to you all!
Here are this week's certificate holders: Team CW - Riley Team EO - Olivia Team AC - Melody Team JF - Jordan Team CH - Nellie Team CB - Henry Team SG - Lewis Team JD - Kacper Team DB - Alex Team AF - Jenin Team LL - Raine The Team of the week this week is Team JD! In Maths, we have been focusing on the composition of 2,3 and 4. We know that; 2 is made of 1 and another 1, 3 is made of 1 and another 1 and another 1 and 4 can be made of 3 and 1 or 1 and another 1 and another 1 and another 1. The Reception children have made their own collections of 3 and 4 using; 1 and another 1 and another 1 makes 3 and 1 and another 1 and another 1 and another 1 makes 4. Some of the Sunshines' have also enjoyed drawing pictures of the NumberBlocks in their choosing time - we love maths! This week in TTRS we have seen some absolute superstars, practising their timestables and having fun whilst doing so.
Here are this week's certificate holders: Team JF – Harley Team CH – Maya Team CB – Henry Team SG – Georgie Team JD – Kacper Team DB – Alex Team LL – Phillip Team AF – Jenin Team of the week this is Team JD! Well done everyone! This week in Team EO, Reception children have investigated ways to compose and de-compose sets of 3 and know that 1 and 2 are parts of 3. We have also investigated ways to compose and de-compose 4 and used spatial language to describe our stampoline patterns and we also investigated ways to compose and de-compose 5. Year 1 children have used a part-whole model to represent a whole partitioned into more than two, explained that numbers can represent how many objects there are in a set and learnt that ordinal numbers show a position and not a set of objects. Y1 Mastering Number: We have been exploring the composition of 8 using an 8-frame, double die frame and the rekenreks.  This week in Team AC, we have been looking at using a part whole model to understand what a 'whole' is and what a 'part' is. We got 8 cubes which was the whole number and then we found different ways to split the cubes in to parts - 8 is the whole, 3 is a part, 3 is a part, 2 is a part.
This week, Year 2 students have been comparing numbers and exploring the difference between two objects. We practiced using stem sentences and discussed that when the larger number is mentioned first, we say "more," and when the smaller number is first, we say "fewer." Students compared a variety of objects and used descriptive language such as "younger," "older," "heavier," "lighter," "taller," and "smaller." We also explored finding the difference between two numbers by using cubes to help visualize and calculate the differences.  In maths, Teams LL and AF have continued to develop our understanding of place value with some pretty enormous numbers up to 8 digit. We have applied our understanding of multiplicatives and applied these to some problem solving and reasoning questions linked to bar charts and scales.
This week, we have a number of TTRS timestables heroes, who have powered through their timestables even during the holidays. A huge congratulations to you all!
Here are this week's certificate holders: Team JF - Ella Team CH - Ella Team CB - Sofia Team SG - Lewis Team JD - Eva Team DB - Amber Team LL - George Team AF - Alaia Well done to everyone for having a go on TTRS this week! This week in maths the children of Team JF continued exploring addition. We started off by counting three groups of objects and understanding how to put this into a calculation. From this, we began working on strategies we could use to help us be successful. We initially counted on from the given number, however, we found this could lead to us becoming confused. We then started to break it up into smaller chunks to make it easier. As our learning progressed, we then created our own calculations in pairs by rolling a dice three times and solving the calculation we made.
