Spellings

This week we are going back to our Year 1 common exception word spellings. Lots of us are very good at reading these words by sight which is brilliant – this will hopefully help with the spelling of them.

Maths

This week in Maths we have started to look at multiplication. We have been focusing on ‘equal groups, both identifying the equal groups and drawing equal groups. Use objects at home, or a pen and paper for the activity below.

Please support your child using the sentence…

Show me ___ groups of ___.

For example, show me  3 groups of 2.  Or show me 5 groups of 6. It is really important that the ‘groups of’ and the ‘amount’ do not get muddled!!

Having a practice of this at home will really help to reinforce our learning at school this week and ensure that your child is confident moving onto Doubling next week.

Thanks for you continued support.
