For Y3, I've  adapted their times table test from simply recalling facts to actually 'seeing' what 8x2 looks like, how it can be represented and then a final focus on recalling the fact.  Recent maths research shows developing this depth of understanding rather than only learning by rote  leads to better mathematical understanding.

Please  enjoy both the chosen reading focus books and the range of great reads on the bookshelf too.
