Numeracy Day- Exploring Size with Steve Jenkins' Actual Size This week, we explored the fascinating world of animals through Steve Jenkins’ book Actual Size. The children were captivated by the life-sized illustrations and loved comparing themselves to the creatures in the book. We learned that a saltwater crocodile can grow up to 7 meters long! To help the children understand just how long that is, we measured and marked 7 meters on the classroom floor using tape and meter sticks. Many children wanted to compare their height to the crocodile’s, so they lay down along the tape to see how many of them it would take to match the crocodile’s length. Curious to see how many Duplo bricks would equal the crocodile’s length, the children lined bricks along the 7-meter stretch. Then came the challenge: “How can we work out the total number of bricks?” Using ten frames, the children counted and discovered they had used 144 bricks! We continued our exploration by looking at the ‘actual size’ image of a human eye and comparing it to the enormous eye of a giant squid. The children placed cut-outs of human eyes over the squid’s to see how many would fit, then used ten frames once again to count. They found it took 92 human eyes to match the size of the giant squid’s eye! It was a fun and hands-on way to learn about measurement, scale, and some truly incredible animals.

A Police Officer Visiting Reception Last week, the children in reception had a visit from a female police officer and it caused great excitement - the children couldn’t wait to talk to her! Fielding enthusiastic questions from them about street patrols, investigations, and arresting people, the police constable was also keen to inform them about the more ‘nurturing’ elements of her job role in a social context - helping members of the public requiring assistance, for example. The children also took great interest in exploring her uniform, some even taking up the officer’s invitation to try on her hat! The officer concluded her visit with advice on safety issues. A wonderful time had by all

Inside this marvellous machine... This week we had a visit from our IT technician. We asked him if it would be possible to see what was inside a computer. We were really excited to find out that, Inside this marvellous machine, there's a world of intricate parts working together to perform calculations and tasks. These parts include the motherboard, CPU, memory, and hard drive. The CPU (Central Processing Unit), also called the processor, is the brain of the computer. Memory, like RAM, stores data and instructions the CPU is actively using. The hard drive stores more permanent data, like files and applications. Afterwards the IT technician left us with a computer, lap top, calculator and a key board where we were able to explore and dissect them using screwdrivers. We really enjoyed having this opportunity and we learnt how marvellous these machines are.
