Maths
In Mathematics this term, we have started by sharpening our skills in the four operations through arithmetic questions. We are now developing our understanding of fractions, focusing on finding equivalence and comparing fractions. Later in the term, we will study place value, formal written methods for addition and subtraction, as well as multiplication, division, percentages, and decimals.
Practising your Maths skills at home is a great idea. Here are some links you could try to improve your speed and accuracy.

Throughout, we will continue to apply our Mathematical skills and understanding to real-life problems and reasoning challenges.
Let us know where you use Maths in your every day life!
