Mathematical vocabulary
We have compared groups of amount using the vocabulary fewer, more and the same. The children used counters, cubes or compare bears to make two groups and then verbally said if the groups were fewer, more or the same - “I have fewer counters than cubes. I have more cubes than counters.” They all…
Changing fonts
In computing we have used our IPads to change the font, size of the writing and colour. We experimented how this changes how our presentation looks.
Continuous shells

Features of Stoke-on-Trent
During Geography, we have used our iPad to record our voice labelling the features of Stoke-on-Trent. The children enjoyed using this new app whilst using our geographical language to complete their task.
Excellent PE skills
Today in PE We have used the bats, balls and cones, we moved slowly, then fast, we played the traffic light game, making sure we were always looking and listening.
