The last 5 weeks we have been focusing on

Multiplication, Division, Fractions, Decimals, Percentages, Ratio and Proportion:

Please take a look at some of our fabulous learning:

EARLY LEVEL:

Primary 1

are working on a group of 10 and some extra ones…

PRIMARY 2-4

Some of our learners really enjoyed this helpful song:

lots of new vocabulary about

EQUAL GROUPS

and EQUAL SHARES

PRIMARY 5-7

The Cuisenaire rods have been very helpful in making equal groups and demonstrating multiplication:

Lots of times tables practice with board games and online games have helped fluency!

The grid method helped with 2digit x 1 digit

as well as 2digit x 2 digit multipluication

We hope you enjoyed practising at home too and appreciate all your support with the chilli HOMEWORK challenges
