Mental Maths

The children have been given a mental maths sheet. Strategies will have been covered in class. Please write on the sheet and hand in on Friday.

Pupils should aim to read their ERIC book every night. Those who benefit from guided reading activities should continue to do this at home.

Have a good week.
