Year 4 -Numberlines

-

 This week, Year 4 are looking at numberlines. We're thinking about how to make them, what the rules are and how they can help us in with our arthematic. To help us visualise and understand how to construct a numberline, we created human numberlines with whiteboards and rulers. We started simple, adding 100 each time. Then we worked out what the missing numbers on the line would be. Finally, with only the first and last number, we worked out how much each interval was increaseing/decreasing by. 


"We because there are ten spaces, we need to divide 30 by 10 which is three so it's going up by 3 each time." Harley

Today has been another action-packed day here at Bawdsey, with the children up bright and early, full of energy and excitement for what lay ahead. After a hearty hot breakfast to fuel the morning, the first activities kicked off: canoeing and Survivor (a fantastic session of den building and outdoor skills). The children embraced the challenge, showing great teamwork and creativity as they constructed their shelters and took to the water with enthusiasm. Following a tasty lunch, the afternoon brought even more thrills with the giant swing — a definite favourite! There were plenty of cheers (and a few nervous giggles) as each child took their turn. We rounded off the day’s activities with a problem-solving session, where teamwork, communication, and thinking outside the box were the keys to success.
