Number Day!

11th February 2025S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

On Number Day we came into school wearing a number and did LOADS of fun things linked to Maths!  Throughout the school, we did activities including solving a theft by solving logic puzzles; graffiti maths where we wrote down everything we knew about maths on large sheets of paper; investigating spirals and how to make different patterns by following an algorithm; playing maths games and puzzles with each other and we did some active maths where we danced around the room solving addition and subtraction problems as well as lots of other activities. We had such good fun and realised that there’s more to maths than just numbers!!

Number Day!

27th February 2024S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

On Friday 2nd February, we enjoyed Number Day! We got to play with loads of games but used our maths skills such as counting, logic and problem solving.  We also did maths puzzles and investigations involving numbers!

Year 5 did activities including creating a mathematical clock where we had to create calculations with at least 2 operations in them to create the numbers 1 to 12. Another investigation was to count the frequency of different letters in an extract from The Lion the Witch and the wardrobe. We tallied the numbers and then created a bar chart, thinking carefully about what the scale had to go in up the side.  Number day was rounded off with a number related quiz!

TT Rockstars of the half term!

2nd March 2023S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

These are our TT Rockstars of the ½ term!  The child from each class who has made the most progress in their ‘Gig’ score (a set of 100 multiplication questions) from September until now were awarded a special certificate in our Friday morning Achievement Assembly. Some children achieved a perfect score of 100/100 on their latest gig and they received a special golden award. Knowing your multiplication tables is so important as it helps you to be fluent and efficient when working mathematically. I wonder who will be the winners of next half term!

CONGRATULATIONS!

15th November 2022S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

Congratulations to these children who were presented with Maths certificates in assembly. The child in each class who has made the most progress with their TT Rockstars gig since starting this academic year received a certificate.  There were 3 very special awards given to children who achieved 100/100 on their latest gig which is impressive, so an extra special well done to Finley Jopling, Ella-May Grant and Darla Mihaita!

Rock Out 2020!

17th November 2020S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

As part of our commitment to make maths exciting and high profile in our school, November 9th – 13th we took part in a competition for Maths Week England, called Rock Out 2020.

For every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, the children earned their class a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform calculated the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours). Our winning Classes were:

1st – Year 6 – Set 2

2nd –  Year 6 – Set 1

3rd – 5LR

 

A huge well done to everyone who took part.  We didn’t manage to get into the top 3 schools, but nevertheless, we are proud of our achievement. We had some outstanding efforts from all year groups, but the top 3 students in the whole school were:

1st – Dennis Rusu (Year 6 – Set 2)

2nd – Hayan Al Dahi (5LR)

3rd – Oliver Wilkins (Year 6 – Set 2)

Power Maths in 5BA!

29th October 2020S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

Children in Year 5 are loving their Maths lessons! In our Power Up today, children played a game which demonstrated their secure understanding of place value. They had to roll a dice and create a number larger than their partner’s, deciding where each digit should go. The maths talk was amazing and the children were able to justify their thinking using appropriate vocabulary.
