MATHS:
Starter:
In the next few weeks, we’re going to revise multiplication calculations. To ensure you’ve got your times tables facts at your fingertips, each day this week for our mental starter, we’re going to play a game which helps you to revise your times tables. Here’s today’s game:

Select -> Times Tables then select the times tables you know you need to practise the most.
Activity:
Since it’s the last day this week, Mrs Pollock and I have created a Competition for P6 and P6/7. The competition begins at 10am and ends at 4pm tonight. It is based on the work you’ve been doing either in class or at home. There are 10 places on the leader board. How many names will there be on the Leader Board from P6 and how many names will there be from P6/7? If your name appears on the Leader Board you’ll be rewarded with coins or if you spend at least 20 minutes on Sumdog, you’ll also be rewarded with coins. Good Luck everyone!
Challenge:
Plenary:
Spend at least 10 minutes on Sumdog. Everyone at Woodlands has been entered into the North Lanarkshire Maths Contest. The contest started on Friday at 8am and finishes on Thursday 21st at 8pm.
