Today, Seal Class completed a maths maze investigation. We needed to get from the start of the maze to the end of the maze adding each number as we went. The first challenge was to find a route that equal led 100. The closest I could get was 101, can you beat me?
This week’s homophones…they sound the same, but don’t let them fool you!

The holidays are nearly here!!! I hope that you all enjoyed this term and learned lots of great stuff!
As a treat, we aren’t asking you to do AS MUCH homework as usual, but we also don’t want your brains to turn off, so….
Reading

Mental Maths
Apart from counting how many mince pies you have eaten 🙂 next term we are revisiting place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions. So anything to practise your mental strategies and to keep your brains fighting fit will be super!
