Year 3/4 Blog 27.01.23

 Dear Parents,

Happy Friday everybody! It has been a very busy beginning of the Spring Term in Year 3/4 - we have been continuing to write our biographies to their conclusion in English. In Math's, we have been looking at length Part of our lesson involved measuring our feet and using cm and mm to accurately do so. We also ordered and compared these measurements as seen in the photo below. The children came up with a thought provoking question. Does the tallest person always have the largest foot?

Year 3/4  Homework Tasks - Due Wednesday 1st FebruaryMust Do

This activity exactly mirrors the 'Multiplication Tables Check' that will be given to children at the end of Year 4. They are tested on their multiplication tables up to 12 x 12. There are twenty-five questions and children have six seconds to answer each question and three seconds between questions. The questions are generated randomly using the same rules as the 'Multiplication Tables Check'
