Some great concrete exploration of multiplying decimals in Year 6 today. 3 representations, all used by the children to explain how they multiply decimals. Numicon Maths at Bartons Primary School #maths #cpa #numicon

Oh my - I can’t wait!

Amazing version

My first experience of SATs as a Yr 6 teacher and I couldn’t be prouder of my class this week. They have shown incredible resilience and determination throughout. I can’t wait to have a fun summer term with them now. Kate Powell #teambartons

Love this

What a joke they are!

Year 6 residential tomorrow to PGL Schools & Groups Osmington Bay. Praying for that sunshine after all the rain we’ve had these last few weeks. Either way I know we will have a fantastic time #residential #year6 #pgl

So that is Year 6 residential over for another year. What an incredible week with an incredible group of children. Thank you to all at PGL Schools & Groups Osmington Bay for all of your support and encouragement with our Team Bartons children - they loved their week. #pgl #residential

An inspiring day at a Maths at Bartons Primary School an Oxford Primary #numicon Advocate School. Thank you Kate Powell, Lynne, governors, staff & children for such great day! Fantastic learning walk, interesting conversations, deep thinking & forward planning. See you again soon!

Fantastic day at Maths at Bartons Primary School. Loved seeing both Numicon and Number Sense Maths in action. Blown away by the power of manipulatives plus oracy in making children into engaged and confident mathematicians. Louise Pennington FCCT (She/Her) Oxford Primary Will Power Lydia Davison Kate Powell

Booked the amazing Darrell Wakelam today for INSET and for working with my pupils next year. Can’t wait!

It’s been an active travel couple of days! 🚲🚊🚴‍♂️ It was great to head out with Year 6’s from Barton’s Primary School on their Bikeability training, as part of the UK’s #cycletoschoolweek2024. Our 8 mile bike ride has encouraged me to take the pledge to explore somewhere new

I’ve been over at Bartons Primary in Bognor Regis today for a whole school training day. 😮 I think they had a nice first day back, I did too. 100% practical making! 👍

Darrell Wakelam It was a brilliant day! I’ve had so many texts from staff saying how much they enjoyed the day and learning new skills. Hey why don’t you come back tomorrow 🤣🤣
