Good morning children,

I'm really missing hearing you all chatting away to me in the morning, telling me about everything you've been doing. Perhaps you could write a letter to me and get your grown up to post it to school to let me know what you've been doing? I'd love to hear how your seeds are growing, what birds you've spotted out of your windows and what you've enjoyed doing at home with your grown ups.

Sorry to hear that the link to the story e-book didn’t work properly for some of you yesterday, I will check this out during the next few days and see whether it can be resent.

If you know your multiplications It’s easy to learn the relating divisions. Practice today with your 2 times table and division facts and write them in your Home Learning Book like this :

1x2=2   so   2÷2=1

2x2=4   so   4÷2=2

3x2=6   so   6÷2=3

and so on. What do you notice?
