Good morning everyone,

It was great to see you all yesterday in our Teams meetings. Mrs Avery is hoping to have learned how to set it so that you can all see one another as well as her. You were all very grown-up and patient – just as we expected. We’re looking forward to meeting up with you all again tomorrow. Today it’s:

Your next Teams’ assignments will be on Friday (Literacy) so more about that later in the week. 

We’ve pasted a quick reminder of your daily routine here to help you keep track of what you should do today, but you can do this in an order that suits your working pattern at home.

Watch today’s greeting with Mr Marshall:

Maths

Warm-up: Keep practicing your times-tables. We’ve been doing lots of work on these now, so I’m sure you’re all becoming experts. Keep up the work on Times-Tables Rockstars or whatever method works for you.

Main task: Today we’ll be exploring more ways of multiplying numbers outside the times-tables. We know some of you have found this tricky. Do the best you can within the lesson and keep practicing your times-tables – once you know those really well, you’ll be super at factor pairs and efficient multiplying.

Don’t forget to login in for your Teams’ meeting tomorrow morning at 9:00 am.

In case you had difficulty obtaining the “Gallery” view it is best to download the App rather than using the web-based Teams! I’m sure this will make sense to some of you!

See you all tomorrow.
