This morning Poplar have explored using Rakenrek to help their maths skills for a mastery approach 🧮🤔 #mathsmastery

This afternoon in PSHE Poplar have been thinking about the people that are special to them. The children made cards to give to their special people and wrote why they are special to them.

Today we helped the toy shop keeper! The toys have lost their price tags, so we had to use digit cards to give them new prices. We used our place value knowledge to: make number using number cards, compare and order numbers and explain our reasoning.
