Dear Parents,
We hope you had a wonderful week. It flew by! The children are continuing to work really hard on their division in math's. It is great to see all their hard work in learning their times tables now paying off. In English, we are writing our own biographies about Sir Ranulph Fiennes. He is the greatest living explorer of our time. We hope to be able to show you these at some point.
As you may have noticed, we are taking part in Cross Country in PE. This week, many children went home covered in mud. Next week, if your child would like to bring in a second pair of (old) trainers to change into, specifically for Cross Country then please feel free to send them in.
On Wednesday 24th, a group of children will be performing in The Primary Dance Festival at The Palace Theatre in Southend.
Lots going on in the next few weeks!

Can Do
- Continue logging on to TTRS, Sumdog and Myon or Big Cat - your logins are stuck in the front cover of your Reading Records.
- Maths - Year 4 will be completing their statutory Multiplication Tables Check in June this year. To this end, please can you ensure your child is regularly accessing and practicing these at: https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check
- 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'.
