A bit about the class Teachers
Mrs Richards
Hello, I am Mrs Richards. I have taught at Crindau since 2005 when I joined as a newly qualified teacher and I've been here ever since! During this time I have taught Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and 2 and Year 3 and. I am so happy to be teaching Year 1/2 this year and cannot wait for the year ahead with your children. I love the outdoors and when I am not working I love nothing more than taking my dog for a walk, especially to the beach which is my favourite place to be. I live with my husband and our son who is in Year 8 in High School!! I cannot wait to get to know all the children this year and make sure they are happy and enjoying their learning. I am sure it is going to be lots of fun! I teach your children all day on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday morning.
Mrs Brown
Hello! I have taught in all year groups from Year 1 to Year 6 for the last 15 years. It goes without saying that the best part about my job is working with children. They are the heart and soul of everything we do in our class. I am passionate about travelling and playing hockey and strive to bring the real world into the classroom. I love the enthusiasm of Year 1 and 2 children - there is never a dull moment. I teach your children on Wednesday afternoon, Thursday all day and Friday all day. I absolutely love teaching and see it as a job from the heart.

Maths and Numeracy
We are committed to making learning as fun as possible for children in our class. We use different real life contexts such as money and measuring to engage children and to help them understand some tricky maths concepts.
Parents: What you can do at home with your children
Talk about maths in every day situations e.g. cook or bake with your children and help them measure the ingredients accurately. Measure different objects in your home. Time each other running or walking a certain distance in seconds and minutes. Make it fun by letting them time how long it takes you to find a certain item in your home. Or measure each others' heights.
When in a shop encourage children to add the total or find the difference in the price of items and calculate the change (with your help).
Teach your children to tell the time on analogue as well as digital clocks.
