Magnificent Maths in Year 4

 Year 4 have returned to school with a place value bang! 

In order to ensure all Year 4 children are equipped with what they require for Year 5 & 6, we are going over some key place value objectives such as:

- Rounding a number to the nearest 10, 100, 1000

- Adding and subtracting 4 digit numbers

- Recognising the place value in 4 digit numbers


In their first lesson back to school, the children were making numbers out of deines and place value counters. 

They were also challenged to find 1 more or 1 less of the number that they had made.




'I can see that I don't need to change the ones when add 10 more!' - Sofia, Elm






“ I found so many different ways to partition the numbers today.” Chloe, Maple 


"I loved when it became a game and We got to go up under the visualiser and make our own numbers with the counters or dienes and then the class has to explain how they knew!" - Cruz, Willow
