We love playing Chopsticks!
1. You need two buddies to play the Chopsticks game.
2. You tap each other's hands and fingers when you play Chopsticks.
3. You put numbers on your fingers.
4. If you got tapped and the other person had number one on their fingers, you would add one to your fingers.
5. You need to have less than ten.
6. The first person to get to ten fingers is the loser!
7. You clap if you have two o your hand, and start all over again.

Playing Maths Slide
You need one to four people to play Maths Slide. You play on an iPad.
It is a game to practise addition (adding numbers).
You tap any colour to choose players.
There are pictures of dice, cards and fingers with numbers on them.
You put the answers in the middle and add the numbers that come up.
You win when you have added all your numbers and the screen tells you when you are a winner!

Making Our Magnificent Mandala
1. We each got a piece of paper which was shaped like a circle.
2. We folded our circle papers in half two times to find the middle and make sections.
3. We used a pencil and drew important things to us. For example, Chloe drew people holding hands, Tyra drew love hearts, Ajo drew her sister, Marshall drew a scooter with a booster, Malupo drew his favourite things to eat and Mani drew her family.

Learning about measurement
We talked about different ways of measuring things. Once upon a time people used their hands and feet to measure length. This would have been tricky - surely everyone had differently sized hands and feet!
We decided to measure our hands and feet. It was fun to see who had the largest and smallest hands and feet.
We carefully traced around Humairah...
...and now here she is on the wall! She's even wearing her perfect Chaucer School uniform. She looks pretty happy to be here!
We can measure Humairah's arms, legs and height using the big metre ruler.

Reciprocal Reading
We love Reciprocal Reading!
We have learnt to make predictions, ask good questions, clarify things we're not sure of, and summarise the stories we read. We all help each other with our reading.

Check out our wonderful publishing!
We wrote about our favourite kinds of learning and the things we love about our class. We have been learning to write our opinions and justify them. We are getting really good at using 'because' in our sentences!
Buddy Time
We have Buddy Time every day after lunch.
We work on our Maths knowledge and we read together.
This is why it's so important to bring our Maths Cards to school every single day in our book bags!
Good buddies help each other to learn!
