Book Week

Reading is out of this world!! Book week was lots of fun. We were lucky enough to have a show from Storylines and we dressed up on the Friday as stars!

Multiplication

Today we started our Multiplication and Division topic in maths.
Miss Graham likes to call it Mult/Div!


We learnt many words we can use instead of multiplication. 

x
Groups of 
Sets of
Lots of
Times

We can even use our addition facts to help us:


Three children in the Room 11 brought in the same amount of YUMMY stickers to put on our sheet. They all brought 2. 
3 x 2 = 6
OR
2 + 2 + 2 = 6


We learnt how easy the 0 x tables and the 1 x tables were!!! We also figured out that the 2 x tables were just doubles - we know them!!
Here's a cool game to practise these (and any other times tables you know!)
