End of Week 1

Wow, that was fast; where did the first week go? Today was cross country and I was very proud of everyone for doing their best - a special shout out to Cody Irvin who came second in the under 11s; his run was outstanding.

We've had some fantastic homework efforts this week and it's been very good to see how they went with the maths strategies on their own. I was able to use the misunderstandings to inform the teaching for the day somewhat and help children build their skills. We're not all there yet, but these strategies come up again a little later in the year when we can consolidate further. Remember, we don't just touch on topics once; we do come back to things often so never lose heart when something is new - next time we see it, it can make a little more sense 😉.
