Marvellous Meerkats Spring 2 Week 1
Date: 26th Feb 2026 @ 2:58pm
Welcome back after our half term break. It has been lovely to see the children and they have settled straight back into their learning.
Take a look at the Marvellous Meerkats' learning this week...
Maths – Exploring Simple Algebra
In maths, the children have been introduced to simple algebra. They’ve been learning how to use letters to represent missing numbers and how to solve equations such as 3 × n = 12 or x + 5 = 17.
It’s been wonderful to see their confidence grow as they realise that algebra is simply another way of expressing the number patterns and problem‑solving skills they already know so well.
English – Writing Biographies
In English, the class has been working on how to write a biography. The children have been exploring the features of biographical writing, including timelines, significant life events, and how to write in a formal, factual style.
