Speed Challenge
The children have been timing themselves in trying to improve their mental recall of multiplication and division facts. This is an area where the children have identified as one of their targets that they want to improve. The link below will show you an example of Tom Renwicks’ Numeracy Map and how we teach multiplication and division facts using a 100 square.
Multiples of 5
The spread sheet below can be printed and the children can practise timing themselves as they complete each column.

Scottish Hootenanny
Primary 4 have been learning all about Scots language and we have been looking at the meaning of certain Scottish words. As part of the Scottish Hootenanny we have decided to sing a traditional Scottish song called ‘Jeely Piece Song’. As part of their homework, the children will be asked to learn the song in order to perform it on stage. The link below has an audio clip to help them.
We will also be singing ‘Flower of Scotland’. The audio clip can be found below.
Song words for each of the songs have been sent home with the children to learn as part of their homework Links to the song words can also be found below.
