Times Tables
In Maths, times tables play an important factor. Times tables should be practised regularly at home to further progress being made in school. It is essential that your child knows their times tables up to 12 x 12 and can recite both multiplication and division facts. For example, 1 times 7 is 7, 8 times 2 is 16 and 25 divided by 5 is 5, 81 divided by 9 is 9 etc. Also, see what rock star status they can achieve below!

It is expected that your child is reading every night, either independently or to somebody at home. Please make sure that your child’s reading diary is signed every day to confirm that they have read.
Please click (here)for a list of questions you could be asking your child at home to develop their inference skills. These style of questions will help your child improve their ability to infer what the author is implying by thinking about what is not necessary stated in the text. For many of these questions, there is no right or wrong answer, however your child should be able to form reasonable suggestions and back it up using evidence from the text.
