Weekly spelling tests will take place on a Friday.

Multiplication tables check

During June, the children will be taking part in a statutory times tables test that all pupils must take. The purpose of this test is to determine whether pupils can recall their times tables fluently, which is an important part of mathematics in Upper Key Stage 2. The test will involve 25 questions based on multiplication questions of times tables up to 12. Please encourage your child to log on to TTRockstars as much as possible to practice their times tables. If the children want to practice the multiplication tables check on TTRS they can access 'Soundcheck' as this gives them the correct amount of questions and it has the same set time limit.

Every day in school we will be practicing our times tables and will be learning up to the 12 x table. Please continue to practice times tables at home by counting, clapping, playing games and much more to help your child to be able to instantly recall their times tables.

YouTube has some very catchy times tables songs which the children might find useful.

I have left some links to websites that your child can use to help learn their times tables...

Thank you all for your co-operation and hard work!
