Throughout Year Six we cover a range of areas in maths. These include the following:
- Understanding and applying number
- Numbers and the number system

- Handling data
- Shape, space and measure.
The children are required to meet an "Expected" level of maths by the SAT tests in May.

Miss Furlong's class were challenged to use logic and reasoning to complete a set of challenges.
They had to:
- design gift wrap for a series of cuboids, deciding what the largest shaped present could be
- make the tallest hat they could from one sheet of A3 paper
- wrap an auditorium by making a net of its shape
- match together two nets to make a cube using visualising skills
The children expanded their mindset and took the challenges on well, never giving up when sometimes, it proved to be tricky.
