This week we are holding Maths support sessions (for both Long Mynd and Hawkstone) focusing on times tables.
Children should know which individual times tables they are learning or need support with, however, if unsure, please just come along to the sessions you feel would benefit your child’s quick recall and fluency skills. See time table below:
Monday – 10:30 2s 5s 10s
Tuesday – 10:30 3 times table 11:00 4 times table
Wednesday- 10:30 6 times table 11:00 7 times table
Thursday – 10:30 8 times table 11:00 9 times table
Friday – 10:30 11 times table 11:00 12 times table

Remember, the curriculum suggests that by the end of Year 3, children should be fluent in the 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10 times tables, and then by the end of Year 4 it’s those tables plus the 6, 7, 9, 11, 12.
Year 3: 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 8s, 10s
Year 4: All times tables up to the 12s
