Maths Assembly
If you forgot to pick up a copy of the maths challenges this week, don't worry just click on the files below and get your brains into gear.
Remember if you have any other maths puzzles or challenges don't forget to bring them to Mr.Hawdon in class 9. Luke had everyone scrathing their heads for days with the last one.
World Beater!
Yes he's at it again...
Our very own Kieran Brown is currently 14th in the WORLD on Mathletics!
Can you get on the leader board???

Fee Fi Fo Fum
Class 2 helped the giant from Jack and the Beanstalk with his chores. They pegged out his washing. They put it all out in number order. Oliver and Dylan hope to find his gold one day soon!
Class 2's outdoor learning
Class 2 have been measuring and counting outdoors. They have made towers taller than the decking fence. They think they're better than Bob!
October 23, 2009
Marvellous Measuring!
Cara and Natasha stayed up FAR too late the other night building a huge paper chain!
Luckily Mr. Firth was able to find a couple of Magnificent Mathemagicians from KS1 to help measure the chain...
Joe and Laura found the paper chain to be over 10m long!
June 15, 2009
Flying High!
They're at it again...
Those Mathemagicians are showing what they can do with their times tables!
These are just a few of the children who were awarded certificates for reaching a new level in their bid to learn all their tables!
Have you got yours yet?
Look in the Mathemagicians section of our website to play games which will help improve your tables.

Making Mathemagicians Logo Winner
It was a hectic end to a marvellously manic maths week - but in Friday's Windy Winners assembly we just had to make time to present our winning logo entry with their star prize!
What a hard task we had choosing the winner though - over fifty entries!
We thought it was fab to see how many families had found time to work on the design challenge together. However, there could be only one winner...
Well done Amy from class 5 who came up with this modification of our school badge!

Tower of Terror!
What a fab hour we spent building our Towers of Terror tonight!
It was great to see our fabulous families 'fighting' it out to construct the tallest tower.
With some having spent time testing out strategies at home, the healthy competition helped produce some super structures!
AND THEY'RE OFF...
Add some time, some fun, some newspaper and a couple of km of masking tape and...
LOOK AT THESE TERRIFIC TOWERS...
OUR WINNER REACHED THE HALL CEILING!

Are You Getting Involved?
Ok so 'loving it' might be a little over the top... but there are still lots of activities going on next week where parents, carers and pupils can share a laugh together having a go at some of our specially planned activities.
There is plenty of space for you still to get involved. Don't be shy, don't delay, ask your child's class teacher and book a space today!

World Maths Day Fever
Today saw the arrival of 'World Maths Day' at Windy Nook Primary School.
Children, teachers and even the odd Governor (and some of ours are very odd!) entered into the spirit of things and waged 'Mental Maths Warfare' with people from across the world!
December 10, 2008
Class 10... at it again!
Check out our latest PODCASTs to find out what we know now!

Flying High Launch
Back by popular demand!
We've added this document (used with parents and friends at this mornings 'Times Tables Tricks' meeting) Feel free to print it off and colour to show how many answers you can give with 10sec thinking time. Perhaps you could print another and colour the answers you can give within just 5sec! If you don't have a printer, don't panic, just ask Mr Firth for a paper copy.
Looking for the games it talked about to support your times tables?
Well you are in the right place! Just click the link below to access the games.
Have FUN!

Mega Maths!
How Keen?
Once again the children of Windy Nook have done us all proud!
Over a dozen Y6 pupils are coming into school 45min early to trail a pack of maths games UKS2 staff have put together. Although not all wish to be in the spot light...
...they are all grafting away to sharpen maths skills through the playing of carefully selected maths games.
If you are really good - you get to play on the interactive Smart Board.
