  • Time Tables Rock Stars

    Published 18/12/19, by Admin

    We have been playing around with Time Tables Rock Stars this week.

    The way it works: 

    • Firstly (if you haven't already) do the baseline test
    • Afterwards, you need to complete at least 1 Studio game and 1 Sound Check. This gives you a level to work on.
    • Then go and practice these table in the Garage section. If you are finding them tricky. Draw out your tables, using the array model, or bar model to help you see the tables clearly (see attachments below).
    • When you feel confident, go back to the Studio and Sound Check to see if you are improving. 

    Tips

    It is not good to spend 15 hours a week doing this. Just do a little and often.  

    Mix up the games that you play. 

    Draw out the tables that you find tricky. It works!

    This week:

    Science; we played with buzzers and used them to answer questions in our end of topic quiz. 

    In Maths we have started looking at 2D shapes and identifying the different properties. For example, what two shapes have 4 vertices, and 4 right angles?

    In English, wrote up our food poems. We tried to create poems with rhymes, rhythm and  repetition.

    This week we have been learning the highs and lows of using Microsoft Word. We researched our favourite food in order to inspire us to write food poems next week. The children have learnt; to copy and paste images from Google Kids, to edit the headers on a Word document, to centralise and enlarge an image, add a text box and save their work. We did hit some bumps along the road. but have learnt to be resilient when it comes to IT. Please try and play around with creating your own favourite food documents at home and practising these Word skills. 

    In Maths, we have been learning how to take a fraction of an amount. If we have a fraction 2/5 of 20, the children know to create 5 boxes and equally share 20 amongst them, then circle 2 of the boxes for 2/5.
