Maths - week starting 14th December

Welcome to the last week of maths before our jolly holidays!


This week we will be concluding our work on multiplication using the grid method and will begin to make connections with more formal written methods. This is a crucial step for the children so that they can eventually use the standard multiplication method and fully understand all of the steps this involves.

Homework - due date Thursday 17th December
This week's homework is to answer 6 different calculations using the gird method. Ask your child to explain what they are doing - do you understand this method?!
