I was very impressed this week with the spelling and times table test results, the vast majority of children have clearly practiced at home over the past week. Keep up the fantastic work!

Times Tables Rock Stars: Play

For Multiplication, I ask that each child spends sometime over the course of the week practicing their multiplication skills using the Times Table Rock Stars website. This is important for both Year 4 and 5 children as these skills are used across the curriculum; however it must be noted that if your child is in Year 4, the government are intending to continue with the Year 4 multiplication assessment this academic year and a little bit of practice each week would be beneficial.

Next Wednesday I will be testing the children on their knowledge of the 4x table.

This online resource can be very helpful with learning timetables:

Simply click timestables and click x4.
