Professor Brainwave visits Daubeney
Professor Brainwave visited Daubeney Primary School on Tuesday, 26th April, Thursday, 28th April & Friday, 29th April. Children were taken on a mathematical journey of attempting to find a solution where deep learning occurs as the sole focus is not on the answer. The focus was Geometry....
Reception - Yellow Class Learn About 3D Shapes
We have been learning all about 3D shapes. We talked about the difference between 3D and 2D shapes. The children were able say that 2D shapes are flat and 3D shapes are not. We sorted out 2D shapes and 3D shapes into two sets. The children all made their very own 3D shakers. We talked about the...
Year 4 - Using Spaghetti and Plasticine to Construct 3D Shapes
Year 4 had the brilliant opportunity to learn about 3D shapes in a very fun way! First they used spaghetti and Plasticine to construct their shapes. Then they wrote down how many faces, vertices and edges each shape had. Comment down below, how many faces does a cube have?
Year 5 - 3D Nets
The children in Year 5 today (20-11-2018) had a practical maths lesson where they constructed 3D shapes using nets. The children then made their 3D shapes and listed the properties of the 3D shapes
Year 5 - 3D Shapes
On the 19th March 2019, the Year 5 pupils enjoyed a practical and hands on lesson, where they used 3D shapes to identify their properties. The children had a range of shapes and had to carefully look at the shapes, identifying their properties, sides, edges, vertices and faces

Reception - Journey through African
We have had a fantastic first week back! This week, reception have been taking a Journey through Africa, learning about the countries, animals and landmarks! We have been making African inspired masks, African patterns using 2D and 3D shapes and bright colours. We have also enjoyed playing in the...
Year 2 - 3D Shapes
This week we made 3D shapes using nets. We had to cut and stick carefully in order to make the correct shape. We then discussed the shape we had made and thought about what 2D shapes we could see on their faces
Year 2 Maths - Shapes
This week in Maths, Year 2 have been working on naming and identifying a range of 2D and 3D shapes. We then focused on 2D shapes, identifying how many sides and vertices each shape has and using mirrors to find the possible lines of symmetry
Year 3 - 3D SHAPES
The children in Kingfisher class had fun today 1-07-2024 in math making 3D shapes
Year 2 - Identifying Shapes
Year 2 explored a range of 2D and 3D shapes recently, thinking about how many sides, vertices, faces or edges each of them has. We discussed similarities between some shapes and also identified differences
Year 2 - Making 3D Shapes
We used nets of 3D shapes to create a range of everyday objects such as boxes, bean tins and tents. We thought carefully about how each edge matched up and were then able to identify how many faces, edges and vertices each shape had
Year 5 - 3D Shapes - May 2025
We recapped the 3D shapes and their properties then drew our own 3D shapes on isometric paper
Year 3 - Angles
This week, we began learning about angles by using maps and toy animals, giving directions using degrees and compass points. In our maths lesson, we also created origami to explore different types of angles, as well as shapes, edges, and vertices—setting the stage for our upcoming sequence on...
Year 2 - Math: 3D nets
We explored 3D shapes and used nets to create a variety of objects!
