Learn your times tables
We have recently signed Y2 up to a timestables site where they can practice their timestables by completing short diplomas and playing some timestables games. If you have had a child in primary before, you will be familiar with this. I’ll send them home with an individual username and password for them to log onto their own area so they can track their progress and work through each step. We have focused specifically on the 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s in Maths recently, so if they could start with these, that would be great.
There is a timed test at the end of each diploma, they are able to redo this if they don’t finish in the time or answer any questions incorrectly.
We will be using it in school, however the more practice they have, the more confident they will become with their tables, so please encourage them to go on at home too.
