Hello Primary 6.<\/p>\n

We will continue to have a Team talk at 1.30pm on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This will let us have a catch up and discuss any work that you are unsure of.<\/p>\n

Challenge<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 I will set everyone a challenge of 250 questions. This is achievable for the majority of you as that is less than what you have been completing up until now. This will be revision of previous learning.<\/p>\n

There are a few people who I need to complete the diagnostic assessment again (this is just to see what you level you are working at, nothing scary). Can I ask these people to focus on maths training and not the challenge. I will email you when it is safe to move over to the challenge. Please check your emails to see if you are one of these people.<\/p>\n
