This is a free resouce until the 5th September!
Today, Year 3 were presented with the Euro Rockstars Trophy! Worthy winners, who won every match comfortably and worked really hard as a class!
Also congratulations to Mohamad in Year 3, who was the top points scorer in the whole tournament. He scored an amazing 64,000 points! He was awarded a £10 voucher from Mr Morgan.
‘Euro Rockstars’ is starting at SS Peter and Paul this Thursday!
Children will compete for their year group in daily battles (7am until 7pm) against other classes in their groups.
The team that wins will get 3 points!
The teams with the highest points after 4 battles/fixtures will go through to the semi final and then possibly the final!
The winning class will receive a trophy and there is a £10 voucher to the child who scores the most points in the tournament!
The first fixtures are on Thursday 17th June –
Year 1 v Year 2 in Group A
Year 4 v Year 5 in Group B!
Login information is available from the class teacher!
Thank you to everyone who took part in NSPCC Rocks today! These are the final class results!
Top performing children will be told next week and receive a prize!
Well done and keep practising those times tables!
Well done to our four Year 5 pupils who attended the annual Girls High Math’s Challenge yesterday. They placed joint 8th and 12th respectively out of 54 teams. This was a fantastic result!
Mathematics is the study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. There is a range of views among mathematicians and philosophers as to the exact scope and definition of mathematics.
Mathematicians seek out patterns[9][10] and use them to formulate new conjectures. Mathematicians resolve the truth or falsity of conjectures bymathematical proof. When mathematical structures are good models of real phenomena, then mathematical reasoning can provide insight or predictions about nature. Through the use of abstraction and logic, mathematics developed from counting, calculation, measurement, and the systematic study of the shapes and motions of physical objects. Practical mathematics has been a human activity for as far back as written recordsexist. The research required to solve mathematical problems can take years or even centuries of sustained inquiry.
Rigorous arguments first appeared in Greek mathematics, most notably in Euclid‘s Elements. Since the pioneering work of Giuseppe Peano (1858–1932), David Hilbert (1862–1943), and others on axiomatic systems in the late 19th century, it has become customary to view mathematical research as establishing truth by rigorous deduction from appropriately chosen axioms and definitions. Mathematics developed at a relatively slow pace until theRenaissance, when mathematical innovations interacting with new scientific discoveries led to a rapid increase in the rate of mathematical discovery that has continued to the present day.[11]
