Maths At Home Competition Entries!

Dylan's Maths at Home challenge was to sort through, and put in order, his latest set of books, "Beast Quest", which have been handed down from his brother.  He found that there are 31 books in total and he has just started reading Book 1 this week! A great way to link Maths and Reading! Well done Dylan and Good Luck! Mrs Blomeley

Abigail has been busy using her maths skills in her baking this week. She used weighing and measuring to make number biscuits and did some maths with them after as well!  Those biscuits look delicious Abigail!  Well done and Good Luck with the competition!  Mrs Blomeley

Abel used his Maths at Home while baking. He needed 70g of sugar so Abel had to count in 5s from 50 to mark 70g on the scales to help him measure it out. Working out units of measurement is a really important skill to learn so this is very impressive!  Well done Abel and Good Luck with your entry!  Mrs Blomeley

Mia's Maths at Home challenge looks great fun!  She is busy playing shopkeepers with her sister.  It involved adding quantities and amounts and handling money and giving change.  They also added time into their game as the shop was open at 6pm and closed at 6:15pm!  So many aspects of Maths in this game!  Well done Mia and Good Luck!  Mrs Blomeley

Here are our first two brilliant entries to the Maths at Home competition!   Firstly, Albert is checking the temperature of his new fridge/freezer and working out the difference between their temperatures of -18 and 3 degress  (answer 21 degrees).  Meanwhile, Matilda is helping her daddy to make sure the new worktops are straight with the spirit level, checking angles and measuring with a tape measure to cut the plinth.  These are both great examples of using Maths at Home!  Thank you and Good Luck!  Mrs Blomeley
