Today the Year 4 children completed a practise Multiplication screening check online. EVERYONE improved on their previous score so very well done Year 4! 
 

Today we researched Mount Vesuvius during our Geography lesson and created a fact file about it. We chose this volcano because it is the one we have been reading about during our English lessons, it’s the most active volcano in Europe! 
 

Today our Year 4 children played some games to practise multiplying and dividing by a ten or one hundred. Some of them have already noticed a trick to help them calculate the answers really fast!
