Good morning everyone !  I hope you are ready for another day of learning ! We are going to do some literacy and numeracy this morning.

Numeracy The number of the day is 456 891 !

We are going to build on our knowledge of using the grid method for multiplication and learn  to multiply by 2 digit numbers. The method is exactly the same and  the PowerPoint  gives you lots of examples and help. You can choose to complete a mild, spicy or hot worksheet. I have attached an extra mild worksheet for anyone who does not feel ready to multiply by two numbers just yet. However if you feel like challenging yourself today then try the ” hot” worksheet which requires you to multiply a four digit number by a 2 digit number. Have fun and remember to present all your work neatly and upload it to your personal learning profile when completed.
