Fractions was “needs another go” last week. Want a warm-up that goes back a step?

This weekWrap-ups9 of 30Needs another goFractionsFriday newsletterDrafted, waiting on you

Wrap up 9:00 Maths

Try it. Press a day, or answer Pip. Today’s date and the lesson marked Now are real; the Year 3 class is made up and nothing is saved.

It already knows your week before you ask.

Your timetable, not a template.

It works from the term dates and forward plan you already keep, not a library of somebody else’s lessons.

It drafts, you send.

Every newsletter, note and worksheet waits for you to read it first.

Works without wifi.

The pad lives on your device and syncs when you’re back on.

Ask in shorthand. Get a lesson.

Pip has your timetable, your plan and yesterday’s wrap-up. One line is enough, and it names a curriculum code only when your plan carries one.

Maths today, they didn’t get fractions yesterday

Pip

You wrapped yesterday up as “needs another go”, so go back a step before pushing on.

45 minutes · Year 3 MathsAC9M3N02

Warm up. Fold paper strips into halves, then quarters.

Main. Place those fractions on a number line in pairs.

Watch. The four who struggled yesterday. Start them with halves.

Something for the last hour Friday

Pip

Friday afternoon is Science on your timetable, and the bridges unit is up to testing.

60 minutes · Year 3 ScienceAC9S3I02

Set up. Groups of four, materials from the blue tub.

Build. A bridge that holds a stapler across a 30 cm gap. Same gap for every group, so it is a fair test.

Finish. Test them, then one sentence each on what held.

The class is invented. Press a different ask and the answer changes with it.

Student names are end‑to‑end encrypted.

Names stay in a vault on your device, and the one backup is encrypted behind a PIN only you hold. Everywhere else a child is a code.

Pick a name. The left is your vault; the right is what Pip is handed. Every name and code here is invented.

One page for whoever has your class.

Away tomorrow? Pip writes the relief note from tomorrow’s pad, as a full page or a clipboard sheet.

9:00MathsQuick check on fractions. Worksheets are on my desk.

Two students need reading support after lunch. First names on the board.

The clipboard sheet prints first names and never a surname. With privacy mode on, not even those.

Written before you sit down.

Friday’s newsletter is drafted from the wrap-ups you tapped. Change the tone and copy it out. Nothing sends itself.

Room 12, Week 4

A big week in maths. We worked on fractions with paper strips and number lines, and the class is starting to see that a half is a half however big the strip is.

Coming up: swimming notes due Monday, and library is now Wednesday.

A made-up week. Each chip rewrites the same facts rather than fetching you a different week.
