Maths Week took place in school from Monday 14th October to Friday 18th October. The children engaged in lots of different Maths activities in their classes. There were lots of counting forwards and backwards to be heard around the school. We discussed how maths is all around us and how we use maths in our everyday lives. The children had the opportunity to play lots of different board games including Ludo, snakes and ladders, draughts, connect 4 to name just a few.
Classes also had the opportunity to use maths in art, music and PE lessons. We also sent parents information from the NCCA with some useful tips on how they can help their child at home with Maths. It was very exciting to welcome the 5th/6th class students from St. Conleth’s and Marys to play board games with our First Classes. A special thank you to all the 5th/6th class students and their teachers for coming to visit us.
On Friday we all performed our favourite number songs and poems for our Maths Week assembly and we had the opportunity to wear something with shapes, number or pattern coming to school.
We love Maths here in St. Conleths Infant School.
A fun week for all!
