Mike Crawford - April 6, 2024
We're finishing up our deep dive into multiplication and division for the term and will continue to revisit it throughout our maths and apply it on project based learning like our scale floor plans.
To continue to gain mastery of basic facts timestable - We have our incredible Times Table Rockstar app that your child has access to. Here are our current top 10 that are constantly changing.
On a side note, congratulations to Rojelio Volkman who has briefly taken the top teacher spot from Zavier Price with an unreal time of .78 seconds per fact.
