This week all Star children have been hard at work with their Maths, both in The Star and in Year Group classes. The year 4s and 5s have been working with place value and converting fractions to decimals. They have all agreed that this has been one of their favourite units this year. In Silver Class the emphasis has been on partitioning and adding numbers to 20, working first with concrete resources. It has been wonderful to see children practising Maths skills in their own free choice time too!
