This week we have been working hard on learning our times tables. 

Year 2 have been continuing to use arrays to help them solve any multiplication calculation. We have also learned about 'the commutitive law of multiplication' - you can multiply two numbers in either order and the answer will be the same!

Year 1 have been practising their counting in 2s and the 2 times table by creating their own multiplication number lines using lots of different resources.

As part of our World Book Day celebrations the whole school focused on the same book this week - One Day on our Blue Planet in the Savannah. 

We have learned a little about what it is like to be a lion cub in the Savannah and have written a story about what we get up to each day. 

The whole school also created a huge mural in the hall of lots of African animals which we designed and made over two afternoons, splitting into our house colour teams.

For World Book Day on Thursday we enjoyed a day in our pyjamas and shared some of our favourite books together.

Home Learning
Due Thursday 14th March

Your home learning this week is practising the number and multiplication facts we have been learning over the past 2 weeks. Both activities are stuck into home learning books - please let me know if you are not sure what to do or you need another copy.

Year 1 need to complete the missing numbers in the 100 square and then colour the multiples of 2 and 10.

Year 2 will need to draw arrays to prove the answers to the multiplication calculations given.
