Mathletics passwords are in your child’s diary. Please make sure that an adult supports your child when working through the place value activities. Well done to all those who have made a great start and especially to those who already have achieved certificates.

Next week we will be continuing to look into the different features of the recount text type. When writing recounts the children will be looking into their own targets by comparing their work from this week with a checklist.
