Homework – Please remember both MATHS and RESEARCH homework are now overdue. If you have not handed them in, please return them to class ASAP. Keep practising the song and working on your table decoration for the ceilidh which is next week. In mental maths – practise counting on as a method of subtraction. For example, if the calculation was 425-321…. start on 321. How many do you add on to get to 330? Then 400? Then 425. Think of subtraction as finding the difference.

Homework – remember to keep working on the 5 Winter Homework Challenges issued two weeks ago. In mental maths, practice PARTITIONING to add. (For example, when adding 345+237, think of it as : 300 + 200 + 40 + 30 + 5 + 7).
