Sticky Knowledge Starters
Before our maths lessons, we do starters known as Sticky Knowledge Starters. The idea behind this is that each year group will recap objectives that have been taught previously. During Autumn term, children's sticky knowledge starters will be based on objectives that were covered the year before. Then as we move on to Spring term, children will cover the objectives taught during the Autumn term, and then starters during the Summer term are the things that were covered in Spring.
Below you can find out what starters your children will be looking at during each week in the current school year.
