Practice Makes Perfect
Homework this week is all about measures.
Year 3 have some word problems to solve and Year 4 have some converting of measures. The sheets are glued in your child’s book.
If your child comes across a problem, please encourage them to ask for some help during the school day.
Times tables
Please practise the 3x table. All of the class will be learning this table for the next few weeks. So, expect lots of 3x related activities to be coming home. We’ll start by simply filling in the sheet that is glued in your child’s book.
