Good morning Oak Class! Welcome to our final week of the half term! I cannot believe that we are at the end of the half term already!

Don’t forget we are having a live maths lesson this morning at 9:00am – set your alarm!

Here is the latest instalment of Explorer:

Reading – Keep going with your reading! If you need a book from school to read then please let me or Mrs Fitz know then we can organise for you to collect a book. Remember that reading a newspaper or magazine counts to your daily total of reading time.

Maths

This week in maths we are looking at multiplication. To begin with we are going to complete calculations and word problems that involve short multiplication then on Wednesday we will move on to long multiplication.
