Who’s taking part in #Barvember this morning? 😁 A reminder of your first set of questions here! ✍️ PDFs and answers are available from our website: bit.ly/3gUchaq
Two lines from a poem come to mind this evening: "...the rain's dressed for a funeral, Crying down the windscreen..." Deep sadness, and profound gratitude for an extraordinary life at the same time.

@DaveniesSchool Wonderful afternoon with 16 schools taking part in my infamous Y4 maths challenge. The host school looked after us well and provided a good team of Y7 markers. #mathschallenges #beyondthetextbook

A great maths activity. So much children can get out of an activity like this and lots of opportunity for talking about maths. #mathstalk #primarymaths #ks2maths
What else do we know? Good open ended starter for the Year 5’s. I like the 8+8+8+8+8+8 the most #mathscpdchat #mathschat #maths #masterymaths #mathsmastery
