Maths-This week we will be revising multiplying and dividing 2 and 3 digit numbers by a one digit number. These lessons are quite short so please continue to work on the activities you have set on Mathletics, including the Live Maths Challenges-We would like you to aim for 1,000 points week. Parents of children with additional learning needs, Mathletics now has only work for your child’s learning rather than work set by their chronological year group so should be accessible to them independently. The questions are read to them and the i tab will help them with their learning. If you hve lost your child’s log in details please contact us via Class Dojo.
