‘As above : pgs 26-50’
Children are required to bring their diary to school every day to be checked and signed.
MFacts – this is an online Times Tables program. As soon as this is setup for 2022 the children will be given their username and password. They are required to watch the introductory videos and complete the practice activities for each colour in sequence. Please note the ASSESSMENT activities must be completed at SCHOOL.
At different times throughout the year, the children will be given a project to complete over a 2-3 week period. At this time, there will be changes to the homework format.
