Editing… so important to teach writers this essential skill. ✍️
Many learners see this as a chore and I know as a previous year 6 teacher and writing lead how difficult it is to engage children in this phase of writing. ✍️
My learner today was reluctant to go back and change anything initially but was really pleased with the end result.

This was a really engaging fine motor control activity and Rowan really showed off his excellent pincer grip 👌🏿

I just love how my learner calls this a capital 4 🤩.

I wish I have known then what I know now. 💕

‘I actually like fractions now.’
When a student has anxiety over a concept and says something like this at the end of a session, it brings me so much joy. 💕

This maths session started with a game of times table race.
Player one starts by popping the popper until they get a double. Meanwhile, player 2 is racing to fill in the grid.
When player one gets a double they swap roles until the grids are completed.
All of my students love this game!

I was always taught that the mean was ‘mean’ because it was the hardest to find out of the mode,median and mean! M did a brilliant job finding the mean in data sets today. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

To help learn the continents today we played a game.
Level one: one player closes their eyes while the other removes a continent. Then player one has to guess which continent is missing.
Level 2: this time the continents are jumbled up out of place and player one has to guess.
Level 3: As level 2 but more than one continent is removed. Player one has to reassemble the continents into the correct places. 🌍🌎🌏

Look at the development of this pencil grip throughout the session today! Super work Rowan 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
