Good morning everyone,

We hope you all had a terrific Tuesday – even if the weather was a bit cold and miserable. Today it’s:

Watch Mrs Avery’s class greeting this morning to listen to this funny story from Dr Seuss.

Your first Teams’ assignment of the week is today – see your Geography lesson later this afternoon. The next one 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 be doing, but you can do this in an order that suits your working pattern at home.

Maths

Warm-up: Keep practising 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. Remember the Times Tables Wheels are on Monday’s post if you need them.

Main task: Today we’re going to explore multiplying 3-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers practically.

There’s a mistake on Tiny’s slide in the film. We are trying to fix the video. Tiny thinks 150 x 3 = 45 not 150 x 4 = 45!
