U.S.A. Road Trip has begun!

The children have been back to working hard this week, learning lots of new facts about the U.S.A. We made the most of the sunshine and started by exploring a giant playground map, finding the answer to missing state abbreviations. Please quiz your children and see if they can remember what NY, CA, FL or TX stand for among others. We even learnt the native American tribe that lived in that state before Europeans arrived. The first city we focus on is New York and we have been getting to know the major landmarks.

In maths we have been working on our knowledge of decimals and can now order and round decimals up to two decimal places. We are getting closer to our national multiplication tables check so please make sure practice stays as regular as possible. Many children have been given new times tables books to use at home, please let me know if your child has lost or completed theirs.
