Maths
This term in maths, we will be doing lots of work on place value, addition, subtraction, telling the time and reading graphs. We will also be working on our general arithmetic skills, making sure we are developing both 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!
Times Tables
It is incredibly important that you know and can recall your times tables in Year 5 and 6. If you haven't already got it, work hard and practise often to earn your Red Badge. If you have got your red badge already, it is still important to practise your times tables all the time as they feed into so many areas of maths!
