Multiplication

Children in year 4 should know all of their times tables (up to 12 x 12) in preparation for the multiplication in the summer term.  We will practise these in class and it would be beneficial for children to practise these at home. Children should be able to answer each question within 6 seconds.

Class dojo will be used to pass on messages and information so please ensure that you have access to this
