Multiplication

Children in year 4 should know all of their times tables (up to 12 x 12) in preparation for the multiplication check later this academic year. 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.

Year 4 have started reading a new book: The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.
We predicted that he will embark on a new journey but become lost and not see his friend again! We look forward to reading more chapters in the coming weeks. 3 Likes
