The Maths dress up, Dates for your Diary and Home learning edition

 

Hello everyone,

I hope you are looking forward to a long bank holiday weekend. 

This week:
This week we have been continuing working on multiplication and division (so please keep that times tables rockstars practice happening). We have also been exploring how sounds are made and have been learning more about Romans in Dorchester with our Roman walking tour on Thursday led by archeologist Steve Wallis. On Friday the children also enjoyed a drums session which you should have received a letter explaining in book bags on Friday.
