(Maths Crocodiles)** We have been learning greater and less than and less than and greater than in a really exciting way. We have found out that crocodiles don't like to eat children or teachers but they like eat BIG NUMBERS. Using the crocodiles mouth we have been able to identify which number is greater and which number is less! We have completed some fantastic maths work using crocodiles to support us. Why not have a go yourself? But remember Big crocodiles like BIG NUMBERS and little crocodiles like small ones. 126 149 289 299 267 278 [Year 2 Penguins](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/tag/year-2-penguins) [ Looking after our environment](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/2016-09-28-13-10-36-looking-after-our-environment) [Year 2 Lobsters- Ordering Numbers ](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/2016-09-29-16-20-12-year-2-lobsters-ordering-numbers) ### Blog - [Nursery Sea Turtles Blog](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/nursery-sea-turtles) - [Reception Clown Fish](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/reception-clown-fish) - [Reception Blue Tang](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/reception-blue-tang) - [Year 1 Sharks](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-1-sharks) - [Year 1 Dolphins](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-1-dolphin) - [Year 1/2 Penguins](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-2-penguin) - [Year 2 Lobsters](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-2-lobster) - [Year 3 Seahorses](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-3-sea-horses) - [Year 4 Star Fish](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-4-star-fish) - [Year 5 Lion Fish](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-5-lionfish) - [Year 6 Stingray](http://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/year-6-stingray) **Boarshaw Primary School** Stanycliffe lane Middleton Manchester M24 2PB Tel: 0161 653 9536 ## Useful Links: [Term Dates](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/parents/termdates) [Contact Us](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/contact) [Admissions](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/our-school/admissions) [Policies](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/our-school/school-policies) © Copyright 2025–2026 Boarshaw Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://boarshawprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
