Tables - Keep practising the multiplication tables in this order – x2, x5, x10, x11, x3, x4, x6, x7, x8, x9, x12 – use the multiplication sheet in the Home Learning tab on our website to help you. There are lots of ways to learn the tables e.g. chant them in different voices, write each table out several times every day, use J2Blast on Hwb, play Fastest Splat with mum/dad/brother/sister. Also, think about the division facts that correspond to these i.e. 7 x 4 = 28 so 28 divided by 4 = 7
