Fielding
Primary School and Nursery
As we approach Christmas, pupils are eagerly awaiting the start of the next TTRS Christmas battle.
Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS) continues to be the greatest phenomenon of learning times tables at Fielding as it is fun and challenging for all of our pupils. Through its carefully sequenced programme of daily times tables practice, it ensures no child is left behind in practice and for those that are confident, over-practice is ensured to increase higher levels of automaticity.
What is a Battle of the Bands?
A Battle of the Bands is a fun way to get groups of pupils competing against each other and a great way to sustain pupils' enthusiasm in practicing times tables on TTRS. This battle will be between all classes in Years 3, 4 and all classes in Years 5 and 6.
When will it begin/end?
The Fielding Battle of the Bands will being on Friday 22nd December at 8am and will end on Tuesday 9th January at 8am. Two battles will take place during these dates and times:
How to play:

How to earn points:
Every correct answer in any game type is worth 1 point towards the class team. Pupils can play in Garage, Rock Slam, Soundcheck, etc and earn 1 point per correct answer.
Pupils should not confuse Battle points with coins! Coins are separate. They will still earn 10 coins per correct answer in the Garage, 5 per correct Soundcheck and 1 coin per correct answer everywhere else.
Prizes
The winning class will be announced when we return to school in January and will win:
From the winning class, the pupil who scores the most points for their class team will win:
TTRS promotes the "little and often" technique which is why pupils only need to play between 8-10 minutes a day as part of their daily practice and whilst doing this over the holiday they will be earning those points for their class band! To promote this further, a competition minutes restriction has been set to '30 minutes' to stop children from excessive screen-time during the holidays.
I'm looking forward to see how this Battle of the Bands 'rocks' out and as Maths Lead, I look forward to announcing the next winners.
The question is... who will it be?
