The Children all have a goal that they are trying to achieve. Initially this was teacher selected, but now that the children are getting the hang of it they will select their own. They then use their spare (or 'can-do') time in class to practice these independently. When they feel like they are achieving this goal they write them name up in a special space, so we can check them during the day or maths session.
This morning we introduced the children to a new maths warm-up focus of 'what makes 10' and the video below is one that they enjoyed using and wanted shared on our blog so they could revisit it at home and at school to practice for their maths standards wall and our current classroom strategy focus.
Andrew enjoyed showing me this and yelling out all the correct answwers as the song played. awesome
